Hi folks, I have a set of questions, of which I do not have an answer to. 1) Stripping lists of string input: 'item1, item2, \t\t\t item3, \n\n\n \t, item4, , , item5, ' output: ['item1', 'item2', 'item3', 'item4', 'item5'] Anything more efficient than doing the following? [x.strip() for x in l.split(',') if x.strip()] 2) Clea...
I want to overload the conversion of an object to a string, so that the following example would output the string "TEST" instead of "[object Object]". How do I do this? function TestObj() { this.sValue = "TEST"; } function Test() { var x = new TestObj(); document.write(x); } ...
Hello, I am trying to make a simple text-based game in Python. The idea of which revolves around a deck of playing cards, representing the card face values with A,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,J,Q, and K (Joker is not used). The suit of the cards will be represented by s,d,h, and c. As an example, "Ace of Hearts" would be represented as Ah. I am ...

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...

I know, I know, now I have two problems 'n all that, but regex here means I don't have to write two complicated loops. Instead, I have a regex that only I understand, and I'll be employed for yonks. I have a string, say stack.overflow.questions[0].answer[1].postDate, and I need to get the [0] and the [1], preferably in an array. "Easy...

Hello Imagine I've got 100 numeric matrixes with 5 columns each. I keep the names of that matrixes in a vector or list: Mat <- c("GON1EU", "GON2EU", "GON3EU", "NEW4", ....) I also have a vector of coefficients "coef", coef <- c(1, 2, 2, 1, ...) And I want to calculate a resulting vector in this way: coef[1]*GON1EU[,1]+coef[2]*GON...
With too many arguments, String.format easily gets too confusing. Is there a more powerful way to format a String. Like so: "This is #{number} string".format("number" -> 1) Or is this not possible because of type issues (format would need to take a Map[String, Any], I assume; don’t know if this would make things worse). Or is the bet...
Hello! Is it ok to do this: var myString="Hello!"; alert(myString[0]); // shows "H" in an alert window Or should it be done with either charAt(0) or substr(0,1)? By "is it ok" I mean will it work on most browsers, is there a best practice recommandation that says otherwise etc. Thank you. ...
If I write a random string to file in C++ consisting of some unicode characters, I am told by my text editor that I have not created a valid UTF-8 file. // Code example const std::string charset = "abcdefgàèíüŷÀ"; file << random_string(charset); // using std::fstream What can I do to solve this?

Given an input String, what is the most efficient way to make just the first character lower case? I can think of a number of ways to do this. For example, using charAt and subString: String string= "SomeInputString"; string = Character.toLowerCase( string.charAt(0)) + (string.length() > 1 ? string.substring(1) : ""); Or using a ch...
I am writing a utility class which converts strings from one alphabet to another, this is useful in situations where you have a target alphabet you wish to use, with a restriction on the number of characters available. For example, if you can use lower case letters and numbers, but only 12 characters its possible to compress a timestamp...
I am curious if you have a string how would you detect the delimiter? We know php can split a string up with explode() which requires a delimiter parameter. But what about a method to detect the delimiter before sending it to explode function? Right now I am just outputting the string to the user and they enter the delimiter. That's ...
