title: regex remove digits and - in beginning
body: <p>I'm treating a list of strings, but I want to alter the strings so they don't look ugly to the user. An example list would be</p>
  
  <pre><code>2736162 Magazines
  23-2311 Numbers
  1-38122 Faces
  5-231123 Newspapers
  31-31235 Armynews
  33-12331 Celebrities 1
  33-22113 Celebrities 2
  Cars
  Glasses
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And what I want is to trim out the beginning so that the ugly sequence of numbers and "-" are left out, and the user only sees the data that makes sense like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Magazines
  Numbers
  Faces
  Newspapers
  Armynews
  Celebrities 1
  Celebrities 2
  Cars
  Glasses
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How would I trim out the digits/-'s in the beginning with regex ?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong>
  Would it be possible to design the same REGEX to also strip these values from:</p>
  
  <pre><code>FFKKA9101U- Aquatic Environmental Chemistry
  FLVKB0381U- Clinical Drug Development
  4761-F-Filosofisk kulturkritik
  B22-1U-Dynamic biochemistry
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Aquatic Environmental Chemistry
  Clinical Drug Development
  Filosofisk kulturkritik
  Dynamic biochemistry
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the rule I would think of is that if there are only capital letters, digits and - or + signs before a - it only makes sense to the machine, and is not an actual word, and therefore should be stripped out, I don't know how to formulate this in regex though.</p>
