I've to add numbers incrementally in the beginning of every line using Notepad++.
It is the not the very beginning. But, like
when ID = '1' then data
when ID = '2' then data
when ID = '3' then data
.
.
.
.
when ID = '700' then
Is there any way i can increment these numbers by replacing with any expression or is there any inbuilt-notepad functions to do so.
Thanks
If you want to do this with notepad++ you can do it in the following way.
First you can write all the 700 lines with template text (you can use a Macro or use the Edit -> Column Editor). Once you have written it, put the cursor on the place you want the number, click Shift+Alt and select all the lines:
It's not possible to accomplish this with a regular expression, as you will need to have a counter and make arithmetic operations (such as incrementing by one).
You can try the cc.p command of ConyEdit. It is a cross-editor plugin for the text editors, of course including Notepad++.
With ConyEdit running, copy the text and the command line below, then paste:
when ID = '#1' then data
cc.p 700

I have a text in cell (A1) like this:
✌😋👅👅☝️😉🍌🍪💧💧
I want to extract the unique emojis from this cell into separate cells:
✌😋👅☝️😉🍌🍪💧
Is this possible?
You want to put each character of ✌😋👅👅☝️😉🍌🍪💧💧 to each cell by splitting using the built-in function of Google Spreadsheet.
Sample formula:
=SPLIT(REGEXREPLACE(A1,"(.)","$1#"),"#")
✌😋👅👅☝️😉🍌🍪💧💧 is put in a cell "A1".
Using REGEXREPLACE, # is put to between each character like ✌#😋#👅#👅#☝#️#😉#🍌#🍪#💧#💧#.
Using SPLIT, the value is splitted with #.
Result:
Note:
In your question, the value of ️ which cannot be displayed is included. It's \ufe0f. So "G1" can be seen like no value. But the value is existing. So please be careful this. If you want to remove the value, you can use ✌😋👅👅☝😉🍌🍪💧💧.

Added:
From marikamitsos's comment, I could notice that my understanding was not correct. So the final result is as follows. This is from marikamitsos.
=TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE(TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(REGEXREPLACE(A1,"(.)","$1#"),"#"))))
or try:
=TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE(TRANSPOSE(REGEXEXTRACT(A1, REPT("(.)", LEN(A1))))))
Formula
Appears, one of the best formula solutions would be:
=SPLIT(REGEXREPLACE(A1,"(.)","$1#"),"#")
You may also add some additional checks like skin tones & intermediate chars:
=TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(REGEXREPLACE(A2,"(.[🏻🏼🏽🏾🏿"&CHAR(8205)&CHAR(65039)&"]*)","#$1"),"#"))
It will help to join some emojis as a single emoji.
Script
More precise way is to use the script:
https://github.com/orling/grapheme-splitter/blob/master/index.js
↑
Add the code to Script editor
Add code for sample usage:
function splitEmojis(string) {
var splitter = new GraphemeSplitter();
// split the string to an array of grapheme clusters (one string each)
var graphemes = splitter.splitGraphemes(string);
return graphemes;
}

I tried a lot on sublime editor but couldn't figure out the regex to do that. Can somebody demonstrate if it can be done.
I tested the following in Notepad++ but it should work universally.
Use this as the search string:
(?:(\s+[A-Za-z]+)(\r?\n))((?:\s*[A-Za-z]*\r?\n)+)\s+(\d+)
and this as the replacement:
$1 $4$2$3
Running a replace with it once will do one line at a time, if you run it multiple times it'll continue to replace lines until there are no matching lines left.
Alternatively, you can use this as the replacement if you want to have the values aligned by tabs, but it's not going to match in all cases:
$1\t\t$4$2$3
While the regex answer by SeinopSys will work, you don't need a regex to do this - instead, you can take advantage of Sublime's multiple cursors.
Place your cursor at the beginning of line 1, then hold down Shift↓ to select all the names.
Hit CtrlShiftL (Selection -> Split into Lines) to split the selection into lines.
CtrlC to copy.
Place your cursor on line 11 (the first number line) and press CtrlShift↓ (Windows/OS X) or AltShift↓ (Linux) to place a cursor at the beginning of each number line.
Hit CtrlV to paste the names before the numbers.
You can now delete the names at the top and you're all set. Alternatively, you could use CtrlX to cut the names in step 3.

How can I use regular expression in excel ?
In above image I have column A and B. I have some values in column A. Here I need to move data after = in column B. For e.g. here in 1st row I have SELECT=Hello World. Here I want to remove = sign and move Hello world in column B. How can I do such thing?
Stackoverflow has many posts about adding regular expressions to Excel using VBA. For your particular example, you would need VBA to actually move a substring from one cell to another.
If you simply want to copy the substring, you can do so easily using the MID function:
=IFERROR(MID(A1,FIND("=",A1)+1,999),A1)
I used 999 to ensure that enough characters were grabbed.
IFERROR returns the cell as-is if an equals sign is not found.
To return the portion of string before the equals sign, do this:
=LEFT(A1,FIND("=",A1&"=")-1)
In this case, I appended the equals sign to A1, so FIND won't return an error if not found.
You can use the Text to Column functionality of MS-Excel giving '=' as delimiter.
Refer to this link:
Chop text in column to 60 charactersblocks
You can simply use Text to Column feature of excel for this:
Follow the below steps :
1) Select Column A.
2) Goto Data Tab in Menu Bar.
3) Click Text to Column icon.
4) Choose Delimited option and do Next and then check the Other options in delimiter and enter '=' in the entry box.
5) Just click finish.

I'd like to use the search & replace dialogue in UltraEdit (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) to format a list of IPs into a standard Format.
The list contains:
192.168.1.1
123.231.123.2
23.44.193.21
It should be formatted like this:
192.168.001.001
123.231.123.002
023.044.193.021
The RegEx from http://www.regextester.com/regular+expression+examples.html for IPv4 in the PCRE-Format is not working properly:
^(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5]){3}$
I'm stucked. Does anybody have a proper solution which works in UltraEdit?
Thanks in advance!
Set the regular expression engine to Perl (on the advanced section) and replace this:
(?<!\d)(\d\d?)(?!\d)
with this:
0$1
twice. That should do it.
If your input is a single IP address (per line) and nothing else (no other text), this approach will work:
I used "Replace All" with Perl style regular expressions:
Replace (?<!\d)(?=\d\d?(?=[.\s]|$))
with 0
Just replace as often as it matches. If there is other text, things will get more complicated. Maybe the "Search in Column" option is helpful here, in case you are dealing with CSV.
If this is just a one-off data cleaning job, I often just use Excel or OpenOffice Calc for this type of thing:
Open your textfile and make sure only one IP address per line.
Open Excel or whatever and goto "Data|Import External Data" and import your textfile using "." as the separator.
You should now have 4 columns in excel:
192 | 168 | 1 | 1
Right click and format each column as a number with 3 digits and leading zeroes.
In column 5 just do a string concatenation of the previous columns with a "." in between each column:
A1 & "." & B1 & "." & C1 & "." & D1
This obviously is a cheap and dirty fix and is not a programmatic way of dealing with this, but I find this sort of technique useful for cleaning up data every now and then.
I'm not sure how you can use Regular Expression in Replace With box in UltraEdit.
You can use this regular expression to find your string:
^(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.(\d|[1-9]\d|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])$
