    Because there’s non-programmers in this community, if you aren’t sure what this means but are too afraid to ask, it’s a Regular Expression that better represents the terms “Linux” and “Unix.”

    Though if we’re going to be that pedantic, it would be [nN][uiI][xX]$. That extra pipe wouldn’t actually do anything in the last example, because regexp picks one character from the set by default.

    And if we want to be really pedantic,

    (?!nix)[nN][uI][xX]$
    

    Would be the most accurate.
