I'm making a simple String Tokenizer in Swift like I would in Java...but it's really not working out for me.
The end of each line in my data source delimited with "^" and the data is separated by comma's.
For example: "string 1,string 2,string 3,^,string 1,string 2,string 3,^"
This is what I would do in Java...(I only want the first two strings in each line of data)
String delimeter = "^";
StringTokenizer tokenizedString = new StringTokenizer(responseString,delimeter);
String [] stringArray = new String [tokenizedString.countTokens()];
StringTokenizer tokenizedAgain;
String str1;
String str2;
String token;
for(int i =0; i< stringArray.length; i ++)
{
token = tokenizedString.nextToken();
tokenizedAgain = new StringTokenizer(token, ",");
tokenizedAgain.nextToken();
str1 = tokenizedAgain.nextToken();
str2 = tokenizedAgain.nextToken();
}
If someone could point me in the right direction that would really helpful.
I've looked at this: Swift: Split a String into an array
and this: http://www.swift-studies.com/blog/2014/6/23/a-swift-tokenizer
but I can't really find other resources on String Tokenizing in Swift. Thanks!
This extends Syed's componentsSeperatedByString answer but with Swift's map to create the requested Nx2 matrix.
let tokenizedString = "string 1, string 2, string 3, ^, string a, string b, string c, ^"
let lines = tokenizedString.componentsSeparatedByString("^, ")
let tokens = lines.map {
(var line) -> [String] in
let token = line.componentsSeparatedByString(", ")
return [token[0], token[1]]
}
println(tokens)
var delimiter = "^"
var tokenDelimiter = ","
var newstr = "string 1, string 2, string 3, ^, string 1, string 2, string 3,^"
var line = newstr.componentsSeparatedByString(delimiter) // splits into lines
let nl = line.count
var tokens = [[String]]() // declares a 2d string array
for i in 0 ..< nl {
let x = line[i].componentsSeparatedByString(tokenDelimiter) // splits into tokens
tokens.append(x)
}
println(tokens[0][0])

I have a subroutine that I pass a string value from a skip list. That value is compared to objects in a Doors File. But the comparison does not work.
Skip split (string s, string delim)
{
Skip skp = create
int i = 0
Regexp split = regexp "^(.*?)" delim "(.*)$"
while (split s)
{
string temp_s = s[match 2]
put(skp, i++, s[match 1] "")
s = temp_s
}
put(skp, i++, s "")
return skp
}
string getInfo( string inStr)
{
for currObj in currMod do
{
if ( findPlainText( ( currOBJ.SW_VRC ""), inStr, offsetFromFind, lengthFromFind, false ) )
{
print currOBJ.SW_VRC " matches " inStr "\n";
}
}
}
Skip newLst = split(modname, ",") // this just splits a string input into parameters separated by commas
string inputInfo;
find(newLst, 0, inputInfo)
getInfo(inputInfo)
Now this is a simplified version of what I am doing. But the findPlainText does not match anything. inputInfo is getting the correct string, I checked.
The part that really kills me is if I hardcode in the parameter
i.e. inStr = "21";
It works like it's supposed to.
Now I was assuming a string is a string. Is there a difference between a string from a skip list and a string that's quoted? Is there a hidden character?
What am I missing? Any insight you could provide would be welcome.
Thanks,
DevM
your snippet works, but I had to add some variables to make it work, and I don't have a split function at hand:
Skip split (string s, string delim)
{
Skip skp = create
int i = 0
Regexp split = regexp "^(.*?)" delim "(.*)$"
while (split s)
{
string temp_s = s[match 2]
put(skp, i++, s[match 1] "")
s = temp_s
}
put(skp, i++, s "")
return skp
}
string SW_VRC="Object Text"
Module currMod = current Module
string getInfo( string inStr)
{
int offsetFromFind, lengthFromFind
string resultString = ""
Object currObj
for currObj in currMod do
{
if ( findPlainText( ( currObj.SW_VRC ""), inStr, offsetFromFind, lengthFromFind, false ) )
{
print currObj.SW_VRC " matches " inStr "\n";
resultString = resultString "\n" currObj.SW_VRC ""
}
}
return resultString
}
string modname = "a,b,cc,ccc,d,e,f"
Skip newLst = split (modname,",")
string inputInfo= "";
find(newLst, 0, inputInfo)
getInfo(inputInfo)
Perhaps you removed too much information when preparing this post?
Or you don't have an entry with the key "0" in newLst? What happens if you start your function with
string inputInfo
inputInfo = "21"
getInfo (inputInfo)
?
I have strings like
"\U0aac\U0ab9\U0ac1\U0ab5\U0a9a\U0aa8",
"\U0a97\U0ac1\U0ab8\U0acd\U0ab8\U0acb",
"\U0aa6\U0abe\U0ab5\U0acb",
"\U0a96\U0a82\U0aa1"
But I want to split this strings by unicode character
I dont know hot to do. I know components seprated by function but it's no use here.
\nAny help would be apperiaciated
If the strings you're getting really contain \U characters, you need to parse them manually and extract the unicode scalar values. Something like this:
let strings = [
"\\U0aac\\U0ab9\\U0ac1\\U0ab5\\U0a9a\\U0aa8",
"\\U0a97\\U0ac1\\U0ab8\\U0acd\\U0ab8\\U0acb",
"\\U0aa6\\U0abe\\U0ab5\\U0acb",
"\\U0a96\\U0a82\\U0aa1"
]
for str in strings {
let chars = str.components(separatedBy: "\\U")
var string = ""
for ch in chars {
if let val = Int(ch, radix: 16), let uni = Unicode.Scalar(val) {
string.unicodeScalars.append(uni)
}
}
print(string)
}
You can map your array, split its elements at non hexa digit values, compact map them into UInt32 values, initializate unicode scalars with them and map the resulting elements of your array into a UnicodeScalarView and init a new string with it:
let arr = [
#"\U0aac\U0ab9\U0ac1\U0ab5\U0a9a\U0aa8"#,
#"\U0a97\U0ac1\U0ab8\U0acd\U0ab8\U0acb"#,
#"\U0aa6\U0abe\U0ab5\U0acb"#,
#"\U0a96\U0a82\U0aa1"#]
let strings = arr.map {
$0.split { !$0.isHexDigit }
.compactMap { UInt32($0, radix: 16) }
.compactMap(Unicode.Scalar.init)
}.map { String(String.UnicodeScalarView($0)) }
print(strings)
This will print
["બહુવચન", "ગુસ્સો", "દાવો", "ખંડ"]
So, the string that comes back already has the "\" because in order to use components you'd need to have an additional escaping "\" so that you'd be able to do:
var listofCodes = ["\\U0aac\\U0ab9\\U0ac1\\U0ab5\\U0a9a\\U0aa8", "\\U0aac\\U0ab9\\U0ac1\\U0ab5\\U0a9a\\U0aa8"]
var unicodeArray :[String] = []
listofCodes.forEach { string in
unicodeArray
.append(contentsOf: string.components(separatedBy: "\\"))
unicodeArray.removeAll(where: {value in value == ""})
}
print(unicodeArray)
I will revise this answer once you specify how you are obtaining these strings, as is I get a non-valid string error from the start.
Is there a way to split a string by some symbol but only at first occurrence?
Example: date: '2019:04:01' should be split into date and '2019:04:01'
It could also look like this date:'2019:04:01' or this date : '2019:04:01' and should still be split into date and '2019:04:01'
string.split(':');
I tried using the split() method. But it doesn't have a limit attribute or something like that.
You were never going to be able to do all of that, including trimming whitespace, with the split command. You will have to do it yourself. Here's one way:
String s = "date : '2019:04:01'";
int idx = s.indexOf(":");
List parts = [s.substring(0,idx).trim(), s.substring(idx+1).trim()];
You can split the string, skip the first item of the list created and re-join them to a string.
In your case it would be something like:
var str = "date: '2019:04:01'";
var parts = str.split(':');
var prefix = parts[0].trim(); // prefix: "date"
var date = parts.sublist(1).join(':').trim(); // date: "'2019:04:01'"
The trim methods remove any unneccessary whitespaces around the first colon.
Just use the split method on the string. It accepts a delimiter/separator/pattern to split the text by. It returns a list of values separated by the provided delimiter/separator/pattern.
Usage:
const str = 'date: 2019:04:01';
final values = string.split(': '); // Notice the whitespace after colon
Output:
Inspired by python, I've wrote this utility function to support string split with an optionally maximum number of splits. Usage:
split("a=b=c", "="); // ["a", "b", "c"]
split("a=b=c", "=", max: 1); // ["a", "b=c"]
split("",""); // [""] (edge case where separator is empty)
split("a=", "="); // ["a", ""]
split("=", "="); // ["", ""]
split("date: '2019:04:01'", ":", max: 1) // ["date", " '2019:04:01'"] (as asked in question)
Define this function in your code:
List<String> split(String string, String separator, {int max = 0}) {
var result = List<String>();
if (separator.isEmpty) {
result.add(string);
return result;
}
while (true) {
var index = string.indexOf(separator, 0);
if (index == -1 || (max > 0 && result.length >= max)) {
result.add(string);
break;
}
result.add(string.substring(0, index));
string = string.substring(index + separator.length);
}
return result;
}
Online demo: https://dartpad.dev/e9a5a8a5ff803092c76a26d6721bfaf4
I found that very simple by removing the first item and "join" the rest of the List
String date = "date:'2019:04:01'";
List<String> dateParts = date.split(":");
List<String> wantedParts = [dateParts.removeAt(0),dateParts.join(":")];
Use RegExp
string.split(RegExp(r":\s*(?=')"));
Note the use of a raw string (a string prefixed with r)
\s* matches zero or more whitespace character
(?=') matches ' without including itself
You can use extensions and use this one for separating text for the RichText/TextSpan use cases:
extension StringExtension on String {
List<String> controlledSplit(
String separator, {
int max = 1,
bool includeSeparator = false,
}) {
String string = this;
List<String> result = [];
if (separator.isEmpty) {
result.add(string);
return result;
}
while (true) {
var index = string.indexOf(separator, 0);
print(index);
if (index == -1 || (max > 0 && result.length >= max)) {
result.add(string);
break;
}
result.add(string.substring(0, index));
if (includeSeparator) {
result.add(separator);
}
string = string.substring(index + separator.length);
}
return result;
}
}
Then you can just reference this as a method for any string through that extension:
void main() {
String mainString = 'Here was john and john was here';
print(mainString.controlledSplit('john', max:1, includeSeparator:true));
}
Just convert list to string and search
productModel.tagsList.toString().contains(filterText.toLowerCase())
An issue here to me that if i use parse string for the result of calculator program for instance,
4.5 * 5.0 = 22.5
how can I use splitting here to depart decimal part from result?
Assuming you're working with strings only :
var str = "4.5 * 5.0 = 22.5 "
// Trim your string in order to remove whitespaces at start and end if there is any.
var trimmedStr = str.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceCharacterSet())
// Split the string by " " (whitespace)
var splitStr = trimmedStr.componentsSeparatedByString(" ")
// If the split was successful, retrieve the last past (your number result)
var lastPart = ""
if let result = splitStr.last {
lastPart = result
}
// Since it's a XX.X number, split it again by "." (point)
var splitLastPart = lastPart.componentsSeparatedByString(".")
// If the split was successful, retrieve the last past (your number decimal part)
var decimal = ""
if let result = splitLastPart.last {
decimal = result
}
Use modf to extract decimal part from result.
Objective-C :
double integral = 22.5;
double fractional = modf(integral, &integral);
NSLog(#"%f",fractional);
Swift :
var integral:Double = 22.5;
let fractional:Double = modf(integral,&integral);
println(fractional);
Want only interger part from double of float
Want only integer value from double then
let integerValue:Int = Int(integral)
println(integerValue)
Want only integer value from float then
let integerValue:Float = Float(integral)
println(integerValue)
In the app I'm working on, I need to extract the first word from a String and put it into another String and the rest of the words in yet another String. I was able to extract the first word using:
String pString = "KOF0000094 Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner"
int spacePos3 = pString.indexOf(" ");
String pFirstWord = pString.substring(0,spacePos3);
Result : KOF0000094
Now I want the "Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner" to put
in another String.
Thanks for your help in advance
Simplest solution with what you already have.
String restOfString = pString.substring(spacePos3+1)
String pSecondWord = pString.substring(spacePos3 + 1);
String whole = "KOF0000094 Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner";
String firstWord = "";
String restOfWords = "";
int spacesIndex = whole.indexOf(" ", 0);
restOfWords = whole.substring(spacesIndex, whole.length());
restOfWords = restOfWords.trim();
firstWord = whole.substring(0, spacesIndex);
firstWord = firstWord.trim();
This is simple string parsing... just find the first index of the first space... i.e. in a for loop...
if(string.charAt(i) == Characters.SPACE)
indexOfSpace = i;
Then your first word will be
String part1 = string.substring(0,indexOfSpace);
and the second string will be
String part2 = string.substring(indexOfSpace + 1);
Try using another call to substring(). What is the index of the first character in the string you want? What is the index of the last character?
You already have the index of the first space, which marks the end of the first word, so all you need to do is take the substring from the index immediately after that (so you don't include the space itself) to the end of the string.
You're probably better of using the split function
It would look something like this:
String pString = "KOF0000094 Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner";
String[] parts = pString.split(" ");
String partone = parts[0];
String partwo = parts[1] + " " +parts[2];
Or something similar, if there are going to be more spaces in the part following the first word you could use a loop or something similar;
You could use split, for instance...
static String pString = "KOF0000094 Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner";
static String[] pFirstWord = pString.split(" ");
/**
* #param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
for(String word : pFirstWord) {
System.out.println(word);
}
}
This returned...
KOF0000094
Implementation:ListingRequest:User
FO-Partner
So the last string would be pFirstWord[1] + pFirstWord[2]
String class has a split method: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#split(java.lang.String)
Use that if you want to get all the words.
EDIT: as mentioned in the comments, String.split is not supported in BB Java.
Or this if you just want the first word and the rest of the string:
int index=yourstring.indexOf(" ");
String firstWord = yourstring.substring(0,index);
String rest = yourstring.substring(index+1);
