Regex which will match all words in string

Question

Can you please suggest a regex code that will select all words. Basically everything between whitespaces

Example-string('This is a man's world') I need to match-'This' 'is' 'a' 'man\s' 'world'

Why does the apostrophe get replaced by a backslash in the output? Did you mean to escape it? Do you expect the regex to do that too? Basically, you want: `\w+` — Gary, Dec 15 '19 at 13:22

This one should do:

(\S+)

It will match all sequences of non-space characters.
