How do I do the following (Python pseudocode) in C++? if argv[1].startswith('--foo='): foo_value = int(argv[1][len('--foo='):]) (For example, if argv[1] is '--foo=98', then foo_value is 98.) Update: I'm hesitant to look into Boost, since I'm just looking at making a very small change to a simple little command-line tool. (I'd ra...

I'm trying to write a string matching rule in ANTLRWorks, and i need to match either escaped quotes or any non quote character. I can match escaped quotes but I'm having trouble with the other part: ~'\'' | ~'\"' will end up matching everything and ~'\'\"' seems to be ignored by the grammar generator (at least the visual display). What s...

I have a bunch of strings I need to extract numbers from. They're in the format: XXXX001 XXXXXXX004 XX0234X There's a lot of these, and i need to loop over them all and extract all the numbers.

I am expecting that both following vectors have the same representation in RAM: char a_var[] = "XXX\x00"; char *p_var = "XXX"; But strange, a call to a library function of type f(char argument[]) crushs the running application if I call it using f(p_var). But using f(a_var) is Ok! Why? ...
Consider this code: String first = "abc"; String second = new String ("abc"); When using the new keyword, Java will create the abc String again right? Will this be stored on the regular heap or the String pool? How many Strings will end in the String pool? ...
I believe these 2 lines are equivalent but after running into a strange issue I no longer believe this to be the case. String mimeType = context.Request.ContentType; (String.Compare("text/xml", mimeType, true) == 0)) is the same as : context.Request.ContentType.ToLower().Equals("text/xml") Are their implementations in the CLR any d...

There's got to be something equivalent to what I WANT to do which is mystring.find("substring", 2nd) How can you achieve this in Python? ...

Hello, I'm looking for an algorithm that takes as arguments two strings, source and destination, and returns the steps required to transform the source string to the destination. Something that takes Levenshtein distance one step farther. E.g., Input: source "abc", dest "abbc" Output: insert 'b' at position 1 in source Input: source...
Suppose I have a string which is a backslash-escaped version of another string. Is there an easy way, in Python, to unescape the string? I could, for example, do: >>> escaped_str = '"Hello,\\nworld!"' >>> raw_str = eval(escaped_str) >>> print raw_str Hello, world! >>> However that involves passing a (possibly untrusted) string to ev...
I'm wondering whether the C++ string is considered small enough to be more efficient when passed by value than by reference. ...
I have a string like x = "http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20owner%2Curls%20from%20flickr.photos.info%20where%20photo_id%3D'%s'&format=json" If I do x % 10 that fails as there are %20f etc which are being treated as format strings, so I have to do a string conactination. How can I use normal string replacements here...
