A clarification of what to submit for assignment 2

for assignment 2, there is no file, and you are not supposed to submit any file to me. make up your own file to search in and then come up with the appropriate regular expressions.

For example, imagine that the first question was to find text in the document which was the letter w, then the letters i or o, then the letter n.

You could write in your document the text:
win
won
wan

In the Find What box, you would type:
w[io]n

and turn on the wildcard option. And when you tried to find, it would find win and won, but not wan. What should you submit to me? In Blackboard, in the comment section, the text w[io]n. But no Word document.

Don't actually submit to me w[io]n. Rather, submit to me the appropriate answers to the questions 1 through 5 in assignment 2.
