Q12. You need to match a time value such as 12:00:32. Which of the following regular expressions would work for your code?

NOTE: The first three are all partially correct and will match digits, but the second option is the most correct because it will only match 2 digit time values (12:00:32). The first option would have worked if the repetitions range looked like [0-9]{2}, however because of the comma [0-9]{2,} it will select 2 or more digits (120:000:321). The third option will any range of time digits, single and multiple (meaning 1:2:3 will also match).
