Arrays

[PepsiHog]

I am using version 12, so forgive me if this is already in newer versions.

Some way of placing all arrays into one string. For example, RegEx gets a pattern and places each result in an array.
A command that would grab all arrays of a match and place them into a single string.

Such as:

GetArray>Matches,;,MyNumbers

Matches is the array. Simi the Delimeter. MyNumbers the result, containing all resulting arrays of Matches separated by simi.

I thought this would be useful for eliminating having to use loops to create such a string.

Sounds like you want the opposite of Separate. That's an unusual but novel idea. There's no command to do it at present in one go but it can be done with a simple loop. Here's some code which starts out with a list, comma separated, turns it into an array and then turns it back to a string:

Code: Select all

Let>list=1,2,3,4,5
Separate>list,comma,items

Let>k=0
Let>newstr=
Repeat>k
  Let>k=k+1
  Let>this=items_%k%
  Let>newstr=%newstr%%this%
  If>k<items_count
    Let>newstr=%newstr%%comma%
  Endif
Until>k=items_count

A single line would be nice, but you can easily turn the above into a reusable subroutine.

There is a VBS function - Join(list[,delimiter]) - that takes a one-dimensional array and puts the elements together separated by the chosen delimiter. Could that maybe be used?
