Limit 10 characters is numbers and only 1 dot

I'm having a regex problem when input
That's the requirement: limit 10 characters (numbers) including dots, and only 1 dot is allowed
My current code is only 10 characters before and after the dot.
^[0-9]{1,10}\.?[0-9]{0,10}$
thank for support.

You could assert 10 chars in the string being either . or a digit.
Then you can match optional digits, and optionally match a dot and again optional digits:
^(?=[.\d]{10}$)\d*(?:\.\d*)?$
The pattern matches:
^ Start of string
(?=[.\d]{10}$) Positive lookahead, assert 10 chars . or digit till the end of string
\d* Match optional digits
(?:\.\d*)? Optionally match a `. and optional digits
$ End of string
See a regex demo.
If the pattern should not end on a dot:
^(?=[.\d]{10}$)\d*(?:\.\d+)?$
Regex demo

The decimal point throws a wrench into most single pattern approaches. I would probably use an alternation here:
^(?:\d{1,10}|(?=\d*\.)(?!\d*\.\d*\.)[0-9.]{2,11})$
This pattern says to match:
^ from the start of the number
(?:
\d{1,10} a pure 1 to 10 digit integer
| OR
(?=\d*\.) assert that one dot is present
(?!\d*\.\d*\.) assert that ONLY one dot is present
[0-9.]{2,11} match a 1 to 10 digit float
)
$ end of the number

You can use a lookahead to achieve your goals.
First, looking at your regex, you've used [0-9] to represent all digit characters. We can shorten this to \d, which means the same thing.
Then, we can focus on the requirement that there be only one dot. We can test for this with the following pattern:
^\d*\.?\d*$
\d* means any number of digit characters
\.? matches one literal dot, optionally
\d* matches any number of digit characters after the dot
$ anchors this to the end of the string, so the match can't just end before the second dot, it actually has to fail if there's a second dot
Now, we don't actually want to consume all the characters involved in this match, because then we wouldn't be able to ensure that there are <=10 characters. Here's where the lookahead comes in: We can use the lookahead to ensure that our pattern above matches, but not actually perform the match. This way we verify that there is only one dot, but we haven't actually consumed any of the input characters yet. A lookahead would look like this:
^(?=\d*\.?\d*$)
Next, we can ensure that there are aren't more than 10 characters total. Since we already made sure there are only dots and digits with the above pattern, we can just match up to 10 of any characters for simplicity, like so:
^.{1,10}$
Putting these two patterns together, we get this:
^(?=\d*\.?\d*$).{1,10}$
This will only match number inputs which have 10 or fewer characters and have no more than one dot.
If you would like to ensure that, when there is a dot, there is also a digit accompanying it, we can achieve this by adding another lookahead. The only case that meets this condition is when the input string is just a dot (.), so we can just explicitly rule this case out with a negative lookahead like so:
(?!\.$)
Adding this back in to our main expression, we get:
^(?=\d*\.?\d*$)(?!\.$).{1,10}$

Using lookahead, how to ensure at least 4 alphanumeric chars are included + underscores

I'm trying to make sure that at least 4 alphanumeric characters are included in the input, and that underscores are also allowed.
The regular-expressions tutorial is a bit over my head because it talks about assertions and success/failure if there is a match.
^\w*(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]{4})$
my understanding:
\w --> alphanumeric + underscore
* --> matches the previous token between zero and unlimited times ( so, this means it can be any character that is alphanumeric/underscore, correct?)
(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]{4}) --> looks ahead of the previous characters, and if they include at least 4 alphanumeric characters, then I'm good.
Obviously I'm wrong on this, because regex101 is showing me no matches.

You want 4 or more alphanumeric characters, surround by any number of underscores (use ^ and $ to ensure it match's the whole input ):
^(_*[a-zA-Z0-9]_*){4,}$

Your pattern ^\w*(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]{4})$ does not match because:
^\w* Matches optional word characters from the start of the string, and if there are only word chars it will match until the end of the string
(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]{4}) The positive lookahead is true, if it can assert 4 consecutive alphanumeric chars to the right from the current position. The \w* allows backtracking, and can backtrack 4 positions so that the assertion it true.
But the $ asserts the end of the string, which it can not match as the position moved 4 steps to the left to fulfill the previous positive lookahead assertion.
Using the lookahead, what you can do is assert 4 alphanumeric chars preceded by optional underscores.
If the assertion is true, match 1 or more word characters.
^(?=(?:_*[a-zA-Z0-9]){4})\w+$
The pattern matches:
^ Start of string
(?= Positive lookahead, asser what is to the right is
(?:_*[a-zA-Z0-9]){4} Repeat 4 times matching optional _ followed by an alphanumeric char
) Close the lookahead
\w+ Match 1+ word characters (which includes the _)
$ End of string
Regex demo

I suggest using atomic groups (?>...), please see regex tutorial for details
^(?>_*[a-zA-Z0-9]_*){4,}$
to ensure 4 or more fragments each of them containing letter or digit.
Edit: If regex doesn't support atomic, let's try use just groups:
^(?:_*[A-Za-z0-9]_*){4,}$

Regex not to allow to consecutive dot characters and more

I am trying to make a JavaScript Regex which satisfies the following conditions
a-z are possible
0-9 are possible
dash, underscore, apostrophe, period are possible
ampersand, bracket, comma, plus are not possible
consecutive periods are not possible
period cannot be located in the start and the end
max 64 characters
Till now, I have come to following regex
^[^.][a-zA-Z0-9-_\.']+[^.]$
However, this allows consecutive dot characters in the middle and does not check for length.
Could anyone guide me how to add these 2 conditions?

You can use this regex
^(?!^[.])(?!.*[.]$)(?!.*[.]{2})[\w.'-]{1,64}$
Regex Breakdown
^ #Start of string
(?!^[.]) #Dot should not be in start
(?!.*[.]$) #Dot should not be in start
(?!.*[.]{2}) #No consecutive two dots
[\w.'-]{1,64} #Match with the character set at least one times and at most 64 times.
$ #End of string
Correction in your regex
- shouldn't be in between of character class. It denotes range. Avoid using it in between
[a-zA-Z0-9_] is equivalent to \w

Here is a pattern which seems to work:
^(?!.*\.\.)[a-zA-Z0-9_'-](?:[a-zA-Z0-9_'.-]{0,62}[a-zA-Z0-9_'-])?$
Demo
Here is an explanation of the regex pattern:
^ from the start of the string
(?!.*\.\.) assert that two consecutive dots do not appear anywhere
[a-zA-Z0-9_'-] match an initial character (not dot)
(?: do not capture
[a-zA-Z0-9_'.-]{0,62} match to 62 characters, including dot
[a-zA-Z0-9_'-] ending with a character, excluding dot
)? zero or one time
$ end of the string

Here comes my idea. Used \w (short for word character).
^(?!.{65})[\w'-]+(?:\.[\w'-]+)*$
^ at start (?!.{65}) look ahead for not more than 64 characters
followed by [\w'-]+ one or more of [a-zA-Z0-9_'-]
followed by (?:\.?[\w'-]+)* any amount of non capturing group containing a period . followed by one or more [a-zA-Z0-9_'-] until $ end

Explain this regex js

I'm using this regex to match some strings:
^([^\s](-)?(\d+)?(\.)?(\d+)?)$/
I'm confusing about why it's permitted to enter two dots, like ..
What I understand is that only allowed to put 1 dash or none (-)?
Any digits with no limit or none (\d+)?
One dot or none (\.)?
Why is allowed to put .. or even .4.6?
Testing done in http://www.regextester.com/

[^\s] means anything that is not a whitespace. This includes dots. Trying to match .. will get you:
[^\s] matches .
(-)? doesn't match
(\d+)? doesn't match
(\.)? matches .
(\d+)? doesn't match
I'll assume you wanted to match numbers (possibly negative/floating):
^-?\d+(\.\d+)?$

^([^\s](-)?(\d+)?(\.)?(\d+)?)$/
Assert position at the beginning of the string ^
Match the regex below and capture its match into backreference number 1 ([^\s](-)?(\d+)?(\.)?(\d+)?)
Match any single character that is NOT present in the list below and that is NOT a line break character (line feed) [^\s]
A single character from the list “\s” (case sensitive) \s
Match the regex below and capture its match into backreference number 2 (-)?
Between zero and one times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives ?
Match the character “-” literally -
Match the regex below and capture its match into backreference number 3 (\d+)?
Between zero and one times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives ?
MySQL does not support any shorthand character classes \d+
Between one and unlimited times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives +
Match the regex below and capture its match into backreference number 4 (\.)?
Between zero and one times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives ?
Match the character “.” literally \.
Match the regex below and capture its match into backreference number 5 (\d+)?
Between zero and one times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives ?
MySQL does not support any shorthand character classes \d+
Between one and unlimited times, as few or as many times as needed to find the longest match in combination with the other quantifiers or alternatives +
Assert position at the very end of the string $
Match the character “/” literally /

As I mentioned in my comment, [^\n] is a negated character class that matches .. and as there is another (\.)? pattern, the regex can match 2 consecutive dots (since all of the parts except for [^\s] are optional).
In order not to match strings like .4.5 or .. you just need to add the . to the [^\n] negated character class:
^([^\s.](-)?(\d+)?(\.)?(\d+)?)$
^
See demo. This will not let any . in the initial capturing group.
You can use a lookahead to only disallow the first character as a dot:
^(?!\.)([^\s](-)?(\d+)?(\.)?(\d+)?)$
See another demo
All explanation is available at the online regex testers:
In order to match the numbers in the format you expect, use:
^(?:[-]?\d+\.?\d*|-)$
Human-readable explanation:
^ - start of string and then there are 2 alternatives...
[-]? - optional hyphen
\d+ - 1 or more digits
\.? - optional dot
\d* - 0 or more digits
| -OR-
- - a hyphen
$ - end of string

business phone regex containing if-else expression

I am trying to write business phone number regex in javascript, my requirements are:
It should contain only digits,dashes and whitespaces
It should not end with - but can end with whitespaces
There should be only 1 - between two groups
It should match numbers with and without - like 1, 123, 678-78
I have tried following regex but it fails for 123-- as it is invalid one anybody please suggest me something
/^([ ]*[0-9]+[-]?[0-9 ]*?([-])[ ]*[0-9]+[ ]*|[0-9 ]*[ ]*)+$/.test('123--2')

Try this
/^[0-9]+(-[0-9\s]+)*$/

I don't know if you still need an answer to this, but this works for your requirements:
/^(?!.+-\s*$)\s*((?:\d+\s*-?\s*)+)$/
Explanation:
^ start of string
(?!.+-\s*$) disallow - (or - followed by whitespace) at the end of the string
\s* optional leading spaces
( start capturing
(?:\d+\s*-?\s*)+ one or more groups of the following:
one or more digits,
possibly followed by whitespace,
possibly followed by a single hyphen,
possibly followed by more whitespace
) stop capturing
$ end of the string
