Split In Parts



Java has String.split(), Python has string.split(), Perl has split. There is no simple string-splitting method in C++, but there are plenty of ways of doing it. Here are some methods:

  1. Split In Past
  2. Split In Two Parts
  3. Split Video In Parts Online
  4. Snake Flag Split In Parts
  1. Put it in a stringstream and extract the tokens
  2. Put it in a stringstream and use getline() with a delimiter
  3. Use string::find progressively
  4. Use string::find_first_of progressively with a number of delimiters
  5. Use boost::split()
  6. Use boost::split_iterator
  7. Use boost::tokenizer
  8. Use boost::sregex_token_iterator
  9. Use pystring::split
  10. Use my C split function

1. Put it in a stringstream and extract the tokens

If part is larger than the number of string portions, SPLITPART returns an empty string. If delimiter is not found in string, then the returned value contains the contents of the specified part, which might be the entire string or an empty value. In this blog I’m going to show you a super easy and fast method for splitting a part (plastic injection molded part in this case) up into two parts (upper half, lower half). The command we are going to use to do the actual “splitting” is the SPLIT command which makes quick work of this task. But a lot of times getting the curve/surface/etc that you want to use to split/cut the part with.

3. Use string::find progressively

4. Use string::find_first_of progressively with a number of delimiters

5. Use boost::split()

Splits a text string into a table of substrings.

Description

The Split function breaks a text string into a table of substrings. Use Split to break up comma delimited lists, dates that use a slash between date parts, and in other situations where a well defined delimiter is used.

A separator string is used to break the text string apart. The separator can be zero, one, or more characters that are matched as a whole in the text string. Using a zero length or blank string results in each character being broken out individually. The matched separator characters are not returned in the result. If no separator match is found then the entire text string is returned as a single result.

Split

Use the Concat function to recombine the string without the separators.

Use the MatchAll function to split a string using a regular expression.

The examples show how Split can be used with the First and Last functions to extract a single delimited substring. The Match function is often a more concise and powerful choice for those familiar with regular expressions.

Syntax

Split( Text, Separator )

  • Text - Required. Text to split.
  • Separator - Required. Separator to use in splitting the string. Can be zero, one, or more characters.

Examples

Basic usage

Split In Two Parts

FormulaDescriptionResult
Split( 'Apples, Oranges, Bananas', ',' )Splits the different fruits apart, based on the comma separator. The split is performed based on only the comma and not the space after it, resulting in a space at the front of ' Oranges' and ' Bananas'.
TrimEnds( Split( 'Apples, Oranges, Bananas', ',' ) )Same as the previous example, but in this case the space is removed by the TrimEnds function, operating on the single column table that is produced by Split. We could have also used the separator ', ' which includes the space after the comma, but that would not have worked properly if there is no space or there are two spaces.
Split( '08/28/17', '/' )Splits the date apart, using a forward slash as the separator.

Different delimiters

FormulaDescriptionResult
Split( 'Hello, World', ',' )Splits the words apart, using a comma as the separator. The second result starts with a space since this was the character immediately following the comma.
Split( 'Hello, World', 'o' )Splits the string apart, using the character 'o' as the separator.
Split( 'Hello, World', 'l' )Splits the string apart, using the single character 'l' as the separator. Since there were no characters between the two l's in Hello, a blank value was returned.
Split( 'Hello, World', 'll' )Splits the string apart, using the double character 'll' as the separator.
Split( 'Hello, World', '%' )Splits the string apart, using the percent sign as the separator. Since this separator does not appear in the string, the entire string is returned as one result.
Split( 'Hello, World', ' )Splits the string apart, using an empty string as the separator (zero characters). This will break the string on each character.

Substring extraction

Snake Flag Split In Parts

FormulaDescriptionResult
First( Split( Last( Split( 'Bob Jones <bob.jones@contoso.com>', '<' ) ).Result, '>' ) ).ResultSplits the string apart based on an opening delimiter (<) and extracts the string to the right of the delimiter with Last. The formula then splits that result based on the closing delimiter (>) and extracts the string the left of the delimiter with Right.'bob.jones@contoso.com'
Match( 'Bob Jones <bob.jones@contoso.com>', '<(?<email>.+)>' ).emailPerforms the same delimiter based extraction as the last example but uses the Match function and a regular expression instead.'bob.jones@contoso.com'
