Splitting a string with multiple lines

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Ashein 275

Hi

I am having a problem, i am trying to splitting a string. But i having problems with it.

I have read about using StrLine, but it complicates it a bit.

Str  text = 2013: 1512 2014: 25222 2015: 35233 2016: 1623233;

// Prints "second-line".
    print strLine(text,1);
 
// Prints "last-line".
    print strLine(text,2); 
    pause;

Does'nt work. It needs "\n"

So i thought of making a loop that inserts "\n" ? 
And StrIns only works if you know the which position to insert in. Which i don't,
when the amounts can change.

Please help

    You could use str2Con to convert your string into a container.

        Str         text = '2013: 1512 2014: 25222 2015: 35233 2016: 1623233';
    container   data;
    
    data = str2con(text,' ');
    print conPeek(data,1) + ' ' + int2str(conPeek(data,2));
    pause;


    Extra benefit is that you actually get your data in a structure that is also a little easier to work with.
