title: In regexes, does dot-star (.*) match spaces?
body: <p>Sorry this is a simple question but I couldn't find an answer anywhere.</p>
  
  <p>I'm going through Automate the Boring Stuff and I'm on Chapter 7 which is about Regexes.</p>
  
  <p>It says .* matches any character except a newline, does that include a space?</p>
