Google sheets : remove data from multiple columns - google-apps-script

Question

I have been trying to clean a file by removing specific values from different columns.
I have no problems doing it from one column but if I add the same script with a different column and run the two script the values are not removed correctly.
I am pretty new to this so my scripting might be wrong. Is there a better way to do this? Or a mistake I made?
function clean() {
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
var deleteSelectedRows = removeThenSetNewVals();
var runTime = (new Date().getTime() - startTime) / 1000;
Logger.log("Runtime is: " + runTime + " seconds");
};
function removeThenSetNewVals(){
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Sheet1');
var range = sheet.getDataRange();
var pattern = new RegExp("value1|value2");
var columnToSearch = 5;
var newRangeVals = range.getValues().filter(r => r[0] && !pattern.exec(r[columnToSearch]))
range.clearContent();
var numRows = newRangeVals.length;
var newRange = sheet.getRange(1,1, numRows, newRangeVals[0].length).setValues(newRangeVals);
var maxRows = sheet.getMaxRows();
sheet.deleteRows(numRows + 1, maxRows - numRows);
};
function clean2() {
var startTime = new Date().getTime();
var deleteSelectedRows = removeThenSetNewVals2();
var runTime = (new Date().getTime() - startTime) / 1000;
Logger.log("Runtime is: " + runTime + " seconds");
};
function removeThenSetNewVals2(){
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Sheet1');
var range = sheet.getDataRange();
var pattern = new RegExp("Value1|Value3");
var columnToSearch = 2;
var newRangeVals = range.getValues().filter(r => r[0] && !pattern.exec(r[columnToSearch]))
range.clearContent();
var numRows = newRangeVals.length;
var newRange = sheet.getRange(1,1, numRows, newRangeVals[0].length).setValues(newRangeVals);
var maxRows = sheet.getMaxRows();
sheet.deleteRows(numRows + 1, maxRows - numRows);
};

Answer 1

You can do all the checks in one .filter() method
function removeThenSetNewVals(){
let sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName('Sheet1'),
range = sheet.getDataRange(),
maxRows = sheet.getMaxRows(),
srchCol_1 = 2,
srchPatt_1 = new RegExp("Value1|Value2"),
srchCol_2 = 5,
srchPatt_2 = new RegExp("Value1|Value3"),
newRangeVals = range.getValues().filter(r => r[0] && !srchPatt_1.exec(r[srchCol_1]) && !srchPatt_2.exec(r[srchCol_2])),
numRows = newRangeVals.length;
range.clearContent();
sheet.getRange(1,1, numRows, newRangeVals[0].length).setValues(newRangeVals);
sheet.deleteRows(numRows + 1, maxRows - numRows);
}
and it might be better to replace pattern.exec(string) with pattern.test(string)?
