Hi All, So, I have a task to find number of substrings in given string. I can't use any C libraries for doing this task. stringExist can only have 2 strings as a parameters. My solution is working, but I have a feeling that there should be a more elegant way to do this task. Solution 1: as it turns out, it doesn't work correctly #incl...
I trying to parse a string in an XML node by using an XPath query which requires that I strip out a substring and read the remaining value. The substring may have a dynamic amount of whitespace before and after it before I can get to the value, so it would be helpful to have some sort of a indexOf function to use in the XPath.

Similar to a question posted here, am looking for a solution in Java. That is, how to find the index of nth occurrence of a character/string from a string? Example: "/folder1/folder2/folder3/". In this case, if I ask for 3rd occurrence of slash (/), it appears before folder3, and I expect to return this index position. My actual inte...

The UUID changes so all I really want to search for is if the class name contains 'tab_selected' and then if it does I want to get the ID of that eleme...
I have a program which needs to be able to search through an ArrayList of 'book' objects, and decide which ones meet given criteria. You can search by Name, ID Number, or Year published. Or just by any assortment of the above. Currently i use nested if statements, where a null value means that field wasn't specified and to display all...

I know that designing state machine generators for regular expressions is not trivial, but what about simple strings (when I say a simple string, I mean something like "abcd" -- something without any regular expression syntax). I was thinking of writing a simple string matcher using state machines, but I wanted the state machine to be ge...
