I'm using python but code in any language will do as well for this question.

Suppose I have 2 strings.

sequence ='abcd'
string = 'axyzbdclkd'

In the above example sequence is a subsequence of string

How can I check if sequence is a subsequence of string using regex? Also check the examples here for difference in subsequence and subarray and what I mean by subsequence.

The only think I could think of is this but it's far from what I want.

import re
c = re.compile('abcd')
c.match('axyzbdclkd')

Just allow arbitrary strings in between:

c = re.compile('.*a.*b.*c.*d.*')
# .* any character, zero or more times
