The "1 or more times" repetition quantifier allows us to repeat a pattern unit 1 or more times (i.e., at least once) in the matching process. The "1 or more times" repetition quantifier character is '+' and it needs be placed immediately after the pattern unit. For example:
\d+ # matches '888' and '99' from '$888.99' (really )+bad # matches 'really really really bad'
The regular expression to capture all words in a text file is:
(\w+)
\w+ - matches 1 or more word characters
