Issue with regex

Ruby
1

I have a string

Default SharpChartGallery PageP&F Chart

When i use the Regulator to create a regex it matches. my sample is
“http(.)+[”]

It returns
“StockCharts.com”>

However when i use ruby, it returns
When i use ruby with syntax a.scan(/“http(.)+[”]/)

It returns [[“t”]]

can someone help determine what error i am doing

When you use parenthetical captures, String#scan returns successive
arrays of those captures. In the case of your scan, you’ve matched
the string once, and captured “t” in the first () group.

If you want a substring that starts with "http and ends with ", you
can do:

a[/“http[^”]+"/]
