I've come up with some snip below, but I wonder if there is a standard function which I could just import which is perhaps even optimized in C? def collapse(input): import re rn = re.compile(r'(\...

I've been looking boost::tokenizer, and I've found that the documentation is very thin. Is it possible to make it tokenize a string such as "dolphin--monkey--baboon" and make every word a token, as well as every double dash a token? From the examples I've only seen single character delimiters being allowed. Is the library not advanced en...

Format(String, Object, Object) Replaces the format item in a specified string with...

I've considered switching...
Do I need special book to learn about string algorithms, or it will be enough to pick up a chapter from general books (e.g."Introduction to Algorithms")? I prefer more code and less theory, and language doesn`t matter. It seems to me that many books on algorithms are outdated. Is it true? ...
I have an existing std::string and an int. I'd like to append the int to the string, but in human readable form (hex notation), rather than in binary gibberish. Normally, I'd just use printf, but I can't do this with a std:: string (can I?) Any suggestions as to how to do this? Example: Given: std::string - "Your Id Number i...
