I maybe am too tired, but atm I don't really see where it will help ? - Lou Montana 01:07, 23 December 2007 (CET)
- You are too tired. Endless posibilities... --raedor 01:27, 23 December 2007 (CET)
- The world of string handling functions has been opened with the possibility to convert from string to array (and back). You can get a substring from a string with toArray, selecting the characters you want, and back to string. You can search for a string within a string, by converting to array and comparing elements. You can trim off leading/trailing spaces, find repeating charachters, count the number of specific characters in a string, etc. etc. HitmanFF 01:42, 23 December 2007 (CET)
- Ooooh yes, I was too tired :) Didn't see you could get each letter separately, it's like "string2array" request ! (just one thing overburn my head, WHY in ASCII ? Upper/Lower comparison ?) - Lou Montana 12:23, 23 December 2007 (CET)
- I think ASCII and Upper/Lower comparisons cover all the basic elements for most tasks?UNN 20:38, 23 December 2007 (CET)
- Well, I guess it was the simplest way! We never had to use ASCII before, but if its purpose is just for Upper/Lowercase, then, adopted ! Maybe I'll use it someday ;) - Lou Montana 02:56, 24 December 2007 (CET)
