About stdlib...
</summary>
<p>We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.</p>
<p>The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.</p>
<p>When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.</p>
<p>To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on <a href="https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib">GitHub</a>, and please consider <a href="https://opencollective.com/stdlib">financially supporting stdlib</a>. We greatly appreciate your continued support!</p>

> [Regular expression][mdn-regexp] to match a [newline][newline] character sequence.
<section class="installation">
## Installation
```bash
npm install @stdlib/regexp-eol
```
</section>
<section class="usage">
## Usage
```javascript
var reEOL = require( '@stdlib/regexp-eol' );
```
#### reEOL( \[options] )
Returns a [Regular expression][mdn-regexp] to match a [newline][newline] character sequence.
```javascript
var RE_EOL = reEOL();
var bool = RE_EOL.test( '\n' );
// returns true
bool = RE_EOL.test( '\r\n' );
// returns true
bool = RE_EOL.test( '\\r\\n' );
// returns false
```
The function accepts an `options` object with optional properties:
- **flags**: `string` specifying regular expression [flags][mdn-regexp-flags]. Default: `''`.
- **capture**: `boolean` indicating whether to create a capture group for the match. Default: `false`.
By default, the function returns a regular expression which does not have any flags specified. To specify [flags][mdn-regexp-flags], set the `flags` option with a list of flags (which may be in any order).
```javascript
var replace = require( '@stdlib/string-replace' );
var RE_EOL = reEOL({
'flags': 'g'
});
var str = '1\n2\n3';
var out = replace( str, RE_EOL, '' );
// returns '123'
```
By default, the function returns a regular expression which does not capture the part of a string matching the regular expression. To capture matches, set the `capture` option.
```javascript
var RE_EOL = reEOL({
'capture': true
});
var str = 'beep\nboop';
var arr = str.split( RE_EOL );
// returns [ 'beep', '\n', 'boop' ]
```
#### reEOL.REGEXP
[Regular expression][mdn-regexp] to match a [newline][newline] character sequence.
```javascript
var bool = reEOL.REGEXP.test( 'abc' );
// returns false
```
#### reEOL.REGEXP_CAPTURE
[Regular expression][mdn-regexp] to capture a [newline][newline] character sequence.
```javascript
var parts = reEOL.REGEXP_CAPTURE.exec( '\n' );
// returns [ '\n', '\n' ]
```

## Examples
<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->
```javascript

// returns true
bool = RE_EOL.test( '\r' );
// returns false
bool = RE_EOL.test( '\\r\\n' );
// returns false
bool = RE_EOL.test( 'beep' );
// returns false
str = 'This is\na newline\r\ndelimited string.';
var arr = str.split( RE_EOL );
// returns [ 'This is', 'a newline', 'delimited string.' ]
