Add char in between string - dart

Question

I want a function which takes string as an argument and add any char between string after every 3 letters.
For example:
func("11111111"){}
will return:
11,111,111

Answer 1

If I understand your question correctly
import 'dart:math' as math;
String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
String newStr = '';
int step = 3;
for (int i = 0; i < src.length; i += step) {
newStr += src.substring(i, math.min(i + step, src.length));
if (i + step < src.length) newStr += divider;
}
return newStr;
}
UPD:
(for separating symbols from end, not from beginning)
String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
String newStr = '';
int step = 3;
for (int i = src.length - 1; i >= 0; i -= step) {
String subString ='';
if (i > 3) {
subString += divider;
}
subString += src.substring( i < step ? 0 : i - step, i);
newStr = subString + newStr;
}
return newStr;
}

Answer 2

String func(String str){
RegExp exp = RegExp(r".{1,3}");
Iterable<Match> matches = exp.allMatches(str);
List<dynamic> list = [];
matches.forEach((m)=>list.add(m.group(0)));
return list.join(',');
}

Answer 3

Try this:
String myFunction(String str, String separator) {
String tempString = "";
for(int i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
if(i % 3 == 0 && i > 0) {
tempString = tempString + separator;
}
tempString = tempString + str[i];
}
return tempString;
}
And use it for example, like this:
Text(myFunction("111111111", ","))

Answer 4

The other solutions work for your stated problem, but if you are looking to add commas in numbers (as in your example), you'll want to add the comma's from the right to the left instead.
ie: 12345678 you would want 12,345,678 not 123,456,78
String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
StringBuilder newStr = new StringBuilder();
int step = 3;
for (int i = src.length(); i > 0; i -= step) {
newStr.insert(0, src.substring( i < step ? 0 : i - step, i));
if (i > 3) {
newStr.insert(0, divider);
}
}
return newStr.toString();
}
