Given: the context,
sentence = “It’s my book, I’ve missed it yesterday.”
When: this action occurred,
words = sentence.scan(#…re)
Then: expecting the output,
words #=>[“It’s”, “my”, “book”, “I’ve”, “missed”, “it”, “yesterday”]

or also interesting:
sentence.gsub(/’\w+/,"'s" => " is", “'ve” => " have").scan(/\w+/)
#=> [“It”, “is”, “my”, “book”, “I”, “have”, “missed”, “it”, “yesterday”]

Your reply is very useful today and you’ve shown a way of arguments to
gsub().
Thank you.
