New String Functions Added to the Standard Library
The Standard Library (opens in a new tab) has been updated and expanded to include various new String functionalities to better handle and manipulate string data. New functions include:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| string_join | Concatenates String or Character data. |
| string_replace | Searches for a string pattern and replaces it. |
| string_trim | Trims string by deleting leading and trailing whitespaces. |
| concat | oncatenates two strings. |
| char / byte | Returns the character at a specific index/byte position. |
| num_chars / num_bytes | Count the characters/bytes of a string. |
A few examples seeing these new functions in action:
// read query
def output[1] = concat["Hello ", "World"] // "Hello World"
def output[2] = string_join[", ",
{(1, "a"); (2, "b"); (3, "c")}
] // "a, b, c"Relation:
// read query
def output[1] = string_trim[" This works "] // "This works"
def output[2] = string_replace["rAI", 'r', 'R'] // "RAI"// read query
def output[1] = num_chars["中文例子"] // 4
def output[2] = char["grün", 3] // 'ü'Related Posts
