Basic Regex question

Ruby
1

dumb question perhaps, but how do I do a Ruby based regex expression
that takes the following as input and produces the following as
output:

INPUT: “#{some_string}” # or perhaps if the # needs escaping this
should be “#{some_string}”
OUTPUT: “some_string”

i.e. what do I put in: “#{some_string}”.match("???")

thanks in advance

something fr,

re=/#{(.?)}/
#=> /#{(.?)}/

s=“#{some_string}”
#=> “#{some_string}”

s.match(re).captures
#=> [“some_string”]
