Not a question. What do you try so far? This is a simple exercise; what's the problem?

As SA said in his comment to the question, you can try first.
Expresso is a very good free program to work with regular expressions, which can be downloaded from here:
Expresso - The premier regular expression development tool[^].

Thank you.

Agree, using Expresso to learn, develop and test different regular expression techniques is a very good idea (actually, an overkill for the OP's trivial problem, but helpful for anyone who needs to use them from time to time). My 5.
