Loop through regex matches

How would one go about looping through all of the matches in a Matcher object? Most of the apex documentation says things like "from the previous match" but I can't even tell how to move between the matches (like previous and next match). Can anyone point me in the right direction, or better yet, post a sample?

 

Thanks!

Figured this out:

 

 

Pattern p = Pattern.compile('regex');
Matcher mo = p.matcher('string');
while (mo.find())
{
    System.debug(mo.group());
}
