  • Replaces 'string.matches' and bytes.matches (returns a regexMatch) with string.startsWith and bytes.startsWith, which returns true if a string/byte starts with a given regular expression
  • Deprecates string.matches and bytes.matches
  • Renames the pattern argument to sep in string.split and bytes.split
  • Updates current tests and adds deprecation tests to reflect the above changes
