Length of the string, excluding the input character/string

Long story short, I want to replicate the function of the length of the string , but do not include an input the number of characters in string. For example:

The input string (search) is 'the

My first string to test is "the big red dog."

That would mean a 13 string length.

My second string is "Jumps over the lazy Fox."

That would mean a length of 21.

' Hello World! ' would return 12.

'The Lion, the Witch and the wardrobe' would return 26.

I hope that you can see what I want to achieve. How is this possible?

Use the search and replace the string to replace your 'exclusive' with an empty string string.  Use the length of the string on the result string.  Make sure that everything is already set to TRUE.

    Hello

    I followed an example online at deveope an xcontrol for the input string, but limit the input only characters for capital letters from A to Z. I have the main code as follows

    In the key to the bottom of the event, I throw all input character with the ASCII beyond [65, 90]. Sounds works but if I continue to press a prohibited (e.g. %), it will show that the key in the control. So, how can I ban the entry by a long press on a button? Thank you.

  • Is there a function to adjust the length of a string to 8 multiple bytes?

    Hello

                                   SUBSTR (l_salt, 4, 10)));

    I want to decrypt the password to send to users when they forget it.  I wrote this function:

  • Length of the string

    Hi all

    I intend to measure the length of the string and the length of the Arc in a gray-scale image. Please advise.

    You need to find to the first circle or outer circle?

    Part of Mathematics:

    The length of the rope of calculation, to find the RADIUS and the angle under which is seen in the center of the rope or perpendicular to the distance between the string and the center of the circle: once you have these settings, you can calculate the length of the rope using formulas:

    Source: http://www.mathopenref.com/chord.html

    Similarly, you can get for the length of the Arc: http://www.mathopenref.com/arclength.html

    Part of image processing:

    -I think that you can get the radius of the internal or external circle based on your requirement, using IMAQ detect forms.

  • flatten channel adds the length of the string

    Hi all

    I flatten a cluster chain help to flatten to string.vi. The cluster contains strings and arrays. The flattened string contains the length of the string that is appended to the string.

    So if I have a cluster with only 1 string and a value = "LabVIEW". the flattened string would be "0007LabVIEW". Flatten channel vi has a Boolean entry "add string or array of size? even if I set the Boolean value false, it always adds the length of the string. Is this a bug?

    I think that if you read the detailed help to flatten it to string function you will see this is not a bug.  That boolean applies only to top-level data, once put you something in a cluster or array, the Paris are open.

  • Lesson1 solutions, length of the string, really a God's solution?

    Hello, I was just looking at the solutions proposed for lesson 1 homework and I came on line 65, ex 2 solution where odd length of the string is calculated this way:

    (s.length () & 1) == 1

    Here, we are a group of users of Java for a long time and we still don't completely understand how it really works.

    Do the bitwise AND operation on the length of the string 1 and audit, seems really strange.

    Either way, I suppose it works somehow but is it really a good solution providing a code which may include only a Ninja of Java for the black belt? If you use it in production which will be able to keep it?

    the pit of my ignorance, I wrote this:

    ! (p.length (% 2) == 0)

    Thank you and have a nice day!

    It's probably again my fault.

    I remember presenting examples of lambda at the beginning I used (I % 2 == 0) to test whether a number has been the same. One of our graphics guys chastises me for using rest (%) instead of bits - and ((i & 1) == 0). In C, the remainder operator is usually compiled to some form of a division operation, which is much slower than a - bit operation and exploitation. (An optimizer may be able to replace i with i 2% & 1 but optimizations in c may be quite subtle). In any case, I started to use at the level of the ILO - and in my examples.

    Then I started getting complaints about the use of the bitwise operators because nobody knew how they worked.

    In any case, in Java, the result is well-defined, as a type int is specified as a 32 bit two complement binary number, so I & 1 will tell you if it's odd or even. The force JIT compiler - reduce i % 2 to i & 1, but when the interpreter is running it will go through the slow lane. As someone said, it's a micro-optimisation anyway.

    A ride is what % is the operator remains , not a modulo operator, while for positive numbers, the result is the same. For negative numbers, the result can be negative! So, be sure to not try for an odd number using i % 2 == 1 because it will fail for an odd, negative number, the result will be-1. Test! = 0, or better still simply use at the level of the ILO - and. Of course, the string length is not a problem because it is still not negative, but the problem may occur in other situations, in particular array of indexation.

  • get the length of each string in a column

    Hi all

    Is there a way to get the length of each string in a column:

    for example:

    If the table contains lines like below:

    That is to say get the count of each separated from the chain of space in a column. Is this possible using regexpr_substr?

  • How to use the input as VC Atttibutes string?

    Hello everyone,

    I'm discovering VCO. And I need your help.

    How can I use input string as a VC attributes at the end? Then, use this return as input for another workflow.

    The workflow that I am putting in place is:

    1-name of the VM to search in vCenter: input String (example: 'TOTO')

    2-search 'TOTO' virtual machine in the vCenter, if found then

    3 - use this result to clone a VM TOTO

    For stage 1 and 2, it works, I can search based on the input of the chain and get a result.

    But for step 3, I use another workflow 'Create virtual machine' and we must put a VC:VirtualMachine.

    And it does not work because the type I get to step 2 is not compatible with the entry for step 3.

    Progressive input signal 3 waiting for VC:VirtualMachine

    And the output of step 2 is the table / VC:VirtualMachine.

    I tried to change the input type for step 3 as table / VC:VirtualMachine.

    Whenever I got the error message:

    TypeError: Cannot find the cloneVM_Task function in the DynamicWrapper (Instance) subject: [VcVirtualMachine]-[class com.vmware.vmo.plugin.vi4.model.VimVirtualMachine] - VALUE: VirtualMachine, vm-907 > "LYNC01." (Name of the dynamic Script Module: cloneVM_1 #13)

    I don't want the workflow using the VC search plugin, but I need to set the input parameter.

    If someone has an idea.

    Thank you all.

    Keep the entry for step 3 as VcVirtualmachine (only one), but add an extra step:

    2.5: get the first (or last, should not question: I hope that you will find only one :-)) table.)

    You can do it in Javascript, using the method. pop() from an array.

    var sourceVM = foundVMs.pop () / / sourceVM is of type VcVirtualMachine, foundVMs table/VcVirtualMachine

    See you soon,.

  • How to get the length of the string a vm?

    Hello

    I'm trying to automate some consolidation of virtual machines and would like to add script. I have over 800 virtual machines manually would not work.

    I would like to

    $allVApps = get-CIVApp

    foreach ($CIVm to ($allVApps |)) Get - CIVM)) {}

    find the number of channels and if greater than 8 consolidate them.

    }

    Someone has this practice? or something else?

    I'm in a cloud environment vSphere 5.5, installed latest powercli.

    Thank you

    Don't know why this does not work for others, but what I posted before work for me.  Here is a more complete version of how get the those of VAPP VM.  There are no doubt more direct ways, but that how I made it so far:

    1. get the VAPP

    $vApp = get-CIvApp-name 'Test-VAPP.

    2. get the VMS of vApp

    $VMs = $vApps.ExtensionData.Children.vm

    3. get the ones for the VM first in the list of $VMs:

    $VMs [0]. VCloudExtension.any.VirtualDisksMaxChainLength

    This last command returns 18 for me which is the "Length of the string" value in the properties of the Virtual Machine to the virtual machine in the vCD UI.

    I hope this helps.
