Re: String manipulation

[Oliver Kroth <oliver.kroth@...>]

Hi Emeka

for i = 1, mystringlen do

 dosomething(mystring.sub(i,i))

end

Is there a better way of doing the above? If yes, please throw it to me :)

possibly:
for c in mystring:gmatch('.') do
    dosomething(c)
end

Hello All,

I have some issues with string manipulation that I would want you to help me out with:

mystring = "google+facebook"

mysringlen = string.len(mystring)

for i = 1, mystringlen do

 dosomething(mystring.sub(i,i))

end

Is there a better way of doing the above? If yes, please throw it to me :)

I also wanted to do some comparison :

if mystring.sub(i,i) == ' " '  then .... end It is not comparing at all ,and this also failed.

mystring.sub(i,i)  == ' ' ' ..

Regards, \Emeka
