A negative look-behind assertion is a zero-width assertion that allows you to not match a subpattern left to the current position (look-behind) without moving the matching position. Negative look-behind assertion is expressed as (?<!pattern). For example:
(?<!\t)\w+ - matches a word that does not follow a tab
The regular expression to match find words ending without 'oo' is:
* - skip space characters (\w+) - capture the word (?<!oo) - is the word not ending with '00'?
