Polarized cap on voltage regulator?

Other Hardware General Electronics

Hi all, I am building a circuit using a voltage regulator. the datasheet states a 0.1uF and 0.33uF caps http://docs-europe.electrocomponents.com/webdocs/0c02/0900766b80c02b34.pdf

I have some tantalum polarized caps, just wondering if I can use them or do they need to be non polarized? Would the positive terminal go to positive as you would normally with a caps?

They will do nicely and polarity is indeed like-to-like

Just make sure the working voltage rating is sufficient.
