Global pattern flags

g modifier: global. Finds all matches instead of stopping after the first

i modifier: insensitive. Matches without distinguishing uppercase and lowercase letters

m modifier: multiline. Causes ^ and $ to match the start and end of each line, not only the start and end of the string

x modifier: extended. Ignores unescaped whitespace and comments outside character classes
