I would like the string "10 1/2" to become "10"; Currently I'm using Split, but this seems like overkill: string TrimMe = "10 1/2"; string[] cleaned = TrimMe.Split(new char[] {' '}); return string[0]; I feel the...

I'm trying to work through ways to create a class with a std::string argument, but which also handles NULL without throwing an exception. Here's an example of the code: class myString { public: myString(const std::string& str) : _str(str) {} std::string _str; }; int main() { myString mystr(NULL); printf("mystr = <%s>\n...

I am working on a PHP forum software (FluxBB) and a user encountered a rather interesting error, that - so it seems - PHP is inserting an ellipsis in the middle of a string. Due to a similar error I found on the net I feel forced to say that this code is situated in a function and that $db is a global variable. Here's the (simplified) ...
Read this question carefully because I am not asking how to get rid of trailing zeros, that's easy. What I am asking is why does 123d become "123.0"? A IEEE 64-bit float can represent integers from 0 to 2^52 exactly, so this isn't a loss in precision but a decision during the implementation of Double.toString(). My question is why did...

Hi, I am trying to truncate some long text in C#, but I don't want my string to be cut off part way through a word. Does anyone have a function that I can use to truncate my string at the end of a word? E.g: "This was a long string..." Not: "This was a long st..." Thanks, Tim ...
As far as i know it's not possible to modify an object from itself this way: String.prototype.append = function(val){ this = this + val; } So is it not possible at all to let a string function modify itself? ...
