Regular expression for non-zero positive floats

Question

Regex for positive float numbers provides almost the correct expressions, but all of them include 0.0 and 0. Closest desired expression is: ^(?:[1-9]\d*|0)?(?:\.\d+)?$ but this includes 0.0 and 0.

What is the regex expression for positive floating numbers such as:

1.0
1.1
0.1
11

but do not include floating numbers such as:

0.0
-0.0
0
-1.0
-1.1
-0.1
-11

Answer 1

Use

^(?:[1-9]\d*|0(?!(?:\.0+)?$))?(?:\.\d+)?$

See proof.

Answer 2

This one is the best:

^\.0*[1-9]\d*$|^0(\.0*[1-9]\d*)$|^[1-9]\d*?(\.\d+)?$

See how it works on regex101.

If you don't want to accept floats like .5, use this one:

^0(\.0*[1-9]\d*)$|^[1-9]\d*?(\.\d+)?$
