Python Regular Expressions

bookChallenge: Validate Phone Numbers

Write a function that checks whether a given string matches the format of a US phone number such as 123-456-7890. The format requires:

  • Three digits;
  • A dash (-);
  • Three more digits;
  • Another dash (-);
  • Four digits.

Use regular expressions to perform this validation. The function should return True if the input string matches the required pattern, and False otherwise.

Example valid phone number:

  • 123-456-7890

Example invalid phone numbers:

  • 1234567890
  • 123-45-6789
  • abc-def-ghij
