Subject: Regular expressions: Find part of a string

Hello Everyone,

I'm quite new to regular expressions, and I'm looking for a way to
find the first 3 letters in a string.

So let's say I have the following string: "foobar", I want to know
what the first three letters of this string is (in this case it's
foo).

What is the regex to make this happen?

Thanks in advance.
