I tried the following code. However, the result is not what I want.
$strLine = "100.11 Q9"
$sortString = StringRegExp ($strLine,'([0-9\.]{1,7})', $STR_REGEXPARRAYMATCH)
MsgBox(0, "", $sortString[0],2)
The output shows 100.11, but I want 100.11 9. How could I display it this way using a regular expression?
$sPattern = "([0-9\.]+)\sQ(\d+)"
$strLine = "100.11 Q9"
$sortString = StringRegExpReplace($strLine, $sPattern, '\1 \2')
MsgBox(0, "$sortString", $sortString, 2)
$strLine = "100.11 Q9"
$sortString = StringRegExp($strLine, $sPattern, 3); array of global matches.
For $i1 = 0 To UBound($sortString) -1
MsgBox(0, "$sortString[" & $i1 & "]", $sortString[$i1], 2)
Next
The pattern is to get the 2 groups being 100.11 and 9.
The pattern will 1st match the group with any digit and dot until it reach
/s which will match the space. It will then match the Q. The 2nd group
matches any remaining digits.
StringRegExpReplace replaces the whole string with 1st and 2nd groups
separated with a space.
StringRegExp get the 2 groups as 2 array elements.
Choose 1 from the 2 types regexp above of which you prefer.

I'm new to Spark using Scala and I need to replace every nth occurrence of the delimiter with the newline character.
So far, I have been successful at entering a new line after the pipe delimiter.
I'm unable to replace the delimiter itself.
My input string is
val txt = "January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December"
println(txt.replaceAll(".\\|", "$0\n"))
The above statement generates the following output.
January|
February|
March|
April|
May|
June|
July|
August|
September|
October|
November|
December
I referred to the suggestion at https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/189923/adding-comma-separator-for-every-nth-character but when I enter the number in the curly braces, I only end up adding the newline after 2 characters after the delimiter.
I'm expecting my output to be as given below.
January|February
March|April
May|June
July|August
September|October
November|December
How do I change my regular expression to get the desired output?
Update:
My friend suggested I try the following statement
println(txt.replaceAll("(.*?\\|){2}", "$0\n"))
and this produced the following output
January|February|
March|April|
May|June|
July|August|
September|October|
November|December
Now I just need to get rid of the pipe symbol at the end of each line.
You want to move the 2nd bar | outside of the capture group.
txt.replaceAll("([^|]+\\|[^|]+)\\|", "$1\n")
//val res0: String =
// January|February
// March|April
// May|June
// July|August
// September|October
// November|December
Regex Explained (regex is not Scala)
( - start a capture group
[^|] - any character as long as it's not the bar | character
[^|]+ - 1 or more of those (any) non-bar chars
\\| - followed by a single bar char |
[^|]+ - followed by 1 or more of any non-bar chars
) - close the capture group
\\| - followed by a single bar char (not in capture group)
"$1\n" - replace the entire matching string with just the first $1 capture group ($0 is the entire matching string) followed by the newline char
UPDATE
For the general case of N repetitions, regex becomes a bit more cumbersome, at least if you're trying to do it with a single regex formula.
The simplest thing to do (not the most efficient but simple to code) is to traverse the String twice.
val n = 5
txt.replaceAll(s"(\\w+\\|){$n}", "$0\n")
.replaceAll("\\|\n", "\n")
//val res0: String =
// January|February|March|April|May
// June|July|August|September|October
// November|December
You could first split the string using '|' to get the array of string and then loop through it to perform the logic you want and get the output as required.
val txt = "January|February|March|April|May|June|July|August|September|October|November|December"
val out = txt.split("\\|")
var output: String = ""
for(i<-0 until out.length -1 by 2){
val ref = out(i) + "|" + out(i+1) + "\n"
output = output + ref
}
val finalout = output.replaceAll("\"\"","") //just to remove the starting double quote
println(finalout)
I've a problem with define regular expression correctly. I want check sets of digits f.e.: 1,2,14,15,16,17 or 12,13,14,15,16,17 or 1,2,3,6,7,8. Every set contains 6 digits from 1 to 49. I check it by input's pattern field.
I wrote some regex but it works only for 2-digit sets.
([1-9]|[1-4][0-9],){5}([1-9]|[1-4][0-9])
Thanks for all answers :)
You forgot to group the number patterns inside the quantified group before comma and the anchors to make the regex engine match the full input string:
^(?:(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9]),){5}(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9])$
^ ^^^ ^ ^
See the regex demo.
Details
^ - start of string
(?:(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9]),){5} - five occurrences of:
(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9]) - either a digit from 1 to 9 or a number from 10 to 49`
, - a comma
(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9])
$ - end of string.
JS demo:
var strs = ['1,2,14,15,16,17','12,13,14,15,16,17', '1,2,3,6,7,8', '1,2,3,6,7,8,'];
var rng = '(?:[1-9]|[1-4][0-9])';
var rx = new RegExp("^(?:" + rng + ",){5}" + rng + "$");
for (var s of strs) {
console.log(s, '=>', rx.test(s));
}
I need a Regular Expression to check whether a value contains any other characters than digits between 0 and 9.
I also want to check the length of the value.
The RegEx I´ve made: ^([0-9]\d{6})$
My test value is: 123Z45 and 123456
The ABAP code:
FIND ALL OCCURENCES OF REGEX '^([0-9]\d{6})$' IN L_VALUE RESULTS DATA(LT_RESULTS).
I´m expecting a result in LT_RESULTS, when I´m testing the first test value '123Z45', because there is a non-digit character.
But LT_RESULTS is in nearly every test case empty.
Your expression ^([0-9]\d{6})$ translates to:
^ - start of input
( - begin capture group
[0-9] - a character between 0 and 9
\d{6} - six digits (digit = character between 0 and 9)
) - end capture group
$ - end of input
So it will only match 1234567 (7 digit strings), not 123456, or 123Z45.
If you just need to find a string that contains non digits you could use the following instead: ^\d*[^\d]+\d*$
* - previous element may occur zero, one or more times
[^\d] - ^ right after [ means "NOT", i.e. any character which is not a digit
+ - previous element may occur one or more times
Example:
const expression = /^\d*[^\d]+\d*$/;
const inputs = ['123Z45', '123456', 'abc', 'a21345', '1234f', '142345'];
console.log(inputs.filter(i => expression.test(i)));
You can also use this character class if you want to extract non-digit group:
DATA(l_guid) = '0074162D8EAA549794A4EF38D9553990680B89A1'.
DATA(regx) = '[[:alpha:]]+'.
DATA(substr) = match( val = l_guid
regex = regx
occ = 1 ).
It finds a first occured non-digit group of characters and shows it.
If you want to just check if they are exists or how much of them reside in your string, count built-in function is your friend:
DATA(how_many) = count( val = l_guid regex = regx ).
DATA(yes) = boolc( count( val = l_guid regex = regx ) > 0 ).
Match and count exist since ABAP 7.50.
If you don't need a Regular Expression for something more complex, ABAP has some nice comparison operators CO (Contains Only), CA, NA etc for you. Something like:
IF L_VALUE CO '0123456789' AND STRLEN( L_VALUE ) = 6.
Regex extracting 99% of desired result.
This is my line:
Customer Service Representative (CS) (TM PM *) **
*Can have more parameters. Example (TM PM TR) etc
**Can have more parenthesis. Example (TM PM) (RI) (AB CD) etc
Except for the first bracket (CS in this case) which is group 1, I can have any number of parenthesis and any number of parameters within those parenthesis in group 2.
My attempt yields the desired result, but with brackets
(\(.*?\))\s*(\(.*?\).*)
My result:
My desired result:
group 1 : CS
group 2 : if gg yiy rt jfjfj jhfjh uigtu
I want help on removing those parenthesis from the result.
My attempt:
\((.*?)\)\s*\((.*?\).*)
which gives me
Can someone help me with this? I need to remove all the brackets from group 2 as well. I have been at it for a long time but can't figure out a way. Thank you.
You can't match disjoint sections of text using a single match operation. When you need to repeat a group, there is no way to even use a replace approach with capturing groups.
You need a post-process step to remove ( and ) from Group 2 value.
So, after you get your matches with the current approach, remove all ( and ) from the Group 2 value with
Group2value = Group2value.Replace("(", "").Replace(")", "");
Here is one approach which uses string splitting along with the base string functions:
string input = "(CS) (if gg yiy rt) (jfjfj) (jhfjh uigtu)";
string[] parts = Regex.Split(input, "\\) \\(");
string grp1 = parts[0].Replace("(", "");
parts[0] = "";
parts[parts.Length - 1] = parts[parts.Length - 1].Replace(")", "");
string grp2 = string.Join(" ", parts).Trim();
Console.WriteLine(grp1);
Console.WriteLine(grp2);
CS
if gg yiy rt jfjfj jhfjh uigtu
I have a dataframe column including pages paths :
pagePath
/text/other_text/123-some_other_txet-4571/text.html
/text/other_text/another_txet/15-some_other_txet.html
/text/other_text/25189-some_other_txet/45112-text.html
/text/other_text/text/text/5418874-some_other_txet.html
/text/other_text/text/text/some_other_txet-4157/text.html
What I want to do is to extract the first number after a /, for example 123 from each row.
To solve this problem, I tried the following :
num = gsub("\\D"," ", mydata$pagePath) /*to delete all characters other than digits */
num1 = gsub("\\s+"," ",num) /*to let only one space between numbers*/
num2 = gsub("^\\s","",num1) /*to delete the first space in my string*/
my_number = gsub( " .*$", "", num2 ) /*to select the first number on my string*/
I thought that what's that I wanted, but I had some troubles, especially with rows like the last row in the example : /text/other_text/text/text/some_other_txet-4157/text.html
So, what I really want is to extract the first number after a /.
Any help would be very welcome.
You can use the following regex with gsub:
"^(?:.*?/(\\d+))?.*$"
And replace with "\\1". See the regex demo.
Code:
> s <- c("/text/other_text/123-some_other_txet-4571/text.html", "/text/other_text/another_txet/15-some_other_txet.html", "/text/other_text/25189-some_other_txet/45112-text.html", "/text/other_text/text/text/5418874-some_other_txet.html", "/text/other_text/text/text/some_other_txet-4157/text.html")
> gsub("^(?:.*?/(\\d+))?.*$", "\\1", s, perl=T)
[1] "123" "15" "25189" "5418874" ""
The regex will match optionally (with a (?:.*?/(\\d+))? subpattern) a part of string from the beginning till the first / (with .*?/) followed with 1 or more digits (capturing the digits into Group 1, with (\\d+)) and then the rest of the string up to its end (with .*$).
NOTE that perl=T is required.
with stringr str_extract, your code and pattern can be shortened to:
> str_extract(s, "(?<=/)\\d+")
[1] "123" "15" "25189" "5418874" NA
>
The str_extract will extract the first 1 or more digits if they are preceded with a / (the / itself is not returned as part of the match since it is a lookbehind subpattern, a zero width assertion, that does not put the matched text into the result).
Try this
\/(\d+).*
