regex for matching 5 digit numbers, starting with specific digits, but not allowing all repetitions
I will use JavaScript and this is the rules that I need to match:
- numbers must have exactly 5 digits
- numbers can only start with 1-4 and 6-9
- numbers cannot have all digits repeatable
So:
12345 - match
11111 - no match (the same digit is repeated 5x
22220 - match
59876 - no match (starts with the digit 5)
90279 - match
899991 - no match (6 digits)
Here is my exploration of the regex pattern:
^(?!(\d)\1{4,})\d{5}$
The problem is that I don’t know how to force it to have the first digit as [1-4,6-9].
Any help would be appreciated.
