The RegExp m{X} Quantifier in JavaScript is used to find the match of any string that contains a sequence of m, X times where X is a number. 

Syntax: 

/m{X}/ 

or

new RegExp("m{X}")

Syntax with modifiers:

/\m{X}/g 

or

new RegExp("m{X}", "g")

Example 1: This example matches the presence of the word ‘ee’ in the whole string. 

Javascript




function geek() {
    let str1 = "GeeksforGeeks@_123_$";
    let regex4 = /e{2}/gi;
    let match4 = str1.match(regex4);
 
    console.log("Found " + match4.length
        + " matches: " + match4);
}
geek();


Output

Found 2 matches: ee,ee

Example 2: This example replaces the word ‘ee’ with the character ‘E’. 

Javascript




function geek() {
    let str1 = "ee@128GeeeeK";
    let regex4 = new RegExp("e{2}", "gi");
    let replace = "E";
    let match4 = str1.replace(regex4, replace);
    console.log(" New string: " + match4);
}
geek();


Output

 New string: E@128GEEK
