The example about the French flag always expects students to say the answer Blue, White and Red. What happens if a students answers Red, white and blue? Can regular expressions deal with any combination of answers?

@Peter:

The only way to match words in any order is to actually write all the possible different combinations, e.g. (blue white red|blue red white|white blue red|white red blue|red white blue|red blue white)--Joseph Rézeau 06:48, 17 February 2012 (WST)
