Applies [RegExp.prototype.exec][exec] iteratively. Returns array of matches.
No fancy custom return format to learn.
``js
var execAll = require('regexp.execall');
execAll(/\w+/g, 'foo bar')
//=> [ [ 'foo', index: 0, input: 'foo bar' ],
// [ 'bar', index: 4, input: 'foo bar' ] ]
`
Subgroups are handled just as you expect:
`js`
execAll(/\$(\d+)/g, '$200 and $400')
//=> [ [ '$200', '200', index: 0, input: '$200 and $400' ],
// [ '$400', '400', index: 9, input: '$200 and $400' ] ]
Returns array of matches in the exact format of [RegExp.prototype.exec][exec]. If regexp is non-global, the resulting array contains either one or zero elements.
It is basically equivalent to the following snippet:
`js
var matches = [], match;
while ((match = regexp.exec(string)) != null) {
matches.push(match);
}
