D. \w is the way to go! It's the universal character class for word characters.

Hmm, I'm not sure. B. Greedy matching doesn't seem right for this problem.

I'm going with D. \w should match all the characters in that range.

I think the answer is C. A custom character set would be the best way to match any character in a-z, 0-9.

I'm not sure, but I think \w could also work for this. It matches any word character, including letters and digits.

I agree with Miesha. Using a custom character set makes sense for matching any character in a-z, 0-9.
