It's my understanding that all three of these lines below should return an ARRAY with 2 results in it. Yet RegExp will only return 1 result no matter how many times the regex repeats in the string.

Can some one explain why? And perhaps suggest how I can get RegExp to give me global results?

//INTPUT: 
    console.log(new RegExp("New York", "gi").exec("New York New York")); 

//OUTPUT: 
["New York"]

//INTPUT: 
    console.log(new RegExp(/New York/gi).exec("New York New York"));

//OUTPUT: 
["New York"]

//INTPUT: 
    console.log("New York New York".match(/New York/gi));

//OUTPUT:
["New York", "New York"]
