Regex/Jquery - Remove String / Keep Int

Question

Not overly familiar with regex, I'm working with a custom calendar, and need to be able to parse out the month and year into separate variables.

To get my date, I am using kendo UI's month picker, so I just grab .val on change. Here is my code below, I've managed to get parse out the month, just need to create a regex that will parse out the year into a var called calYear:

$("#MonthPicker").change(function () {
    var x = $(this).val();
    console.log(x);
    var calMonth = x.replace(/\d+/g, ''); 
    console.log(calMonth);
});

Here is my console's output:

November 2013 <-- This is var x
November <-- This is var calMonth

Use split() with a space delimiter. This will put both in array indexes. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/… — Maxwell Donathan

You can just use String#split to get both values in single operation:

var tok = 'November 2013'.split(' ');
var month = tok[0]; // November
var year = tok[1]; // 2013

By given info, you can use this:

var calMonth = x.match(/\d{4}$/g)[0];

@Mark I had the idea of split, but you hadn't provided the example.. so, just use split() and you can choose the other answer as your answer..
