Regex is match OR condition in a single line?

[Nathan (Nathan Smith)]

How do we create an OR condition in regex where in it should return true either of the condition is met for example

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(data,"^sampleregexhere1") | System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(data,"^sampleregexhere2")

if any of the following is met it should only return 1 value which either true or false. Is that possible ? Thanks

[Nathan (Nathan Smith)]

Any idea ? Thanks.

regex = “pattern1|pattern2”

[Nathan (Nathan Smith)]

[nameless]
