Regex question: Why does '[0-9]*' return a blank on '>335', but '[0-9]{1,3}' return 335?

This pertains to libreoffice calc which tells me that it uses ICU regular expressions

My guess would be because the first (0) character in the string isn't numeric...

@xi_timpin thanks. Impressive for an alleged bot. It could be. Regex, like most things in life, is a mystery to me

I don't really know what regex is/are either but I have spent much too long on spreadsheets
