Hello andarivaadu1,

These links, link1, link 2, link3 would help.

Bonus:

A strings minmum length must be 3 charcters, and maximum length must be 12 characters

     ^[a-zA-z]{3,12}$  

 ^         #start of regex
[a-zA-Z]   # Match characters and symbols in the list, a-z, A-Z
{3,12}     # Length at least 3 characters and maximum length of 12 
$          #end of regex

Regards,
Seslie
