I want to split a string and reproduce the content in different tags
Input
<Sample>8.1 Learning XSLT in 24 hours, 198</Sample>
Output
<Sample><number>8.1</number><title>Learning XSLT in 24 hours,</title><pages>198</pages></Sample>
Note:I want to split the data based on the space.
Thanks,

What makes my question different than many others already asked is that I know how to parse data with delimiters such as a comma or space, but I'm unsure how to parse data that is separated by spaces but also contain spaces. This is an example line:
M 9 12.02 Adam Productions Inc
So I need to parse "M", 9, 12.02, and "Adam Productions Inc" out to different variables but I'm not sure how to do that. Here is my code to parse by spaces.
Dim contents() As String = strRawFile.Split(New [Char]() {CChar(" ")}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
Obviously this does parse my first 3 pieces of data, but then it tears apart the 4th piece. How can I modify my code to overcome this?
Desired Result:
M
9
12.02
Adam Productions Inc
One way is to split it out and then join together items from the 4th element of the array until the array length. This assumes that there will not be any embedded spaces in the first 3 items.
So I have some code that does essentially this:
REAL, DIMENSION(31) :: month_data
INTEGER :: no_days
no_days = get_no_days()
month_data = [fill array with some values]
WRITE(1000,*) (month_data(d), d=1,no_days)
So I have an array with values for each month, in a loop I fill the array with a certain number of values based on how many days there are in that month, then write out the results into a file.
It took me quite some time to wrap my head around the whole 'write out an array in one go' aspect of WRITE, but this seems to work.
However this way, it writes out the numbers in the array like this (example for January, so 31 values):
0.00000 10.0000 20.0000 30.0000 40.0000 50.0000 60.0000
70.0000 80.0000 90.0000 100.000 110.000 120.000 130.000
140.000 150.000 160.000 170.000 180.000 190.000 200.000
210.000 220.000 230.000 240.000 250.000 260.000 270.000
280.000 290.000 300.000
So it prefixes a lot of spaces (presumably to make columns line up even when there are larger values in the array), and it wraps lines to make it not exceed a certain width (I think 128 chars? not sure).
I don't really mind the extra spaces (although they inflate my file sizes considerably, so it would be nice to fix that too...) but the breaking-up-lines screws up my other tooling. I've tried reading several Fortran manuals, but while some of the mention 'output formatting', I have yet to find one that mentions newlines or columns.
So, how do I control how arrays are written out when using the syntax above in Fortran?
(also, while we're at it, how do I control the nr of decimal digits? I know these are all integer values so I'd like to leave out any decimals all together, but I can't change the data type to INTEGER in my code because of reasons).
You probably want something similar to
WRITE(1000,'(31(F6.0,1X))') (month_data(d), d=1,no_days)
Explanation:
The use of * as the format specification is called list directed I/O: it is easy to code, but you are giving away all control over the format to the processor. In order to control the format you need to provide explicit formatting, via a label to a FORMAT statement or via a character variable.
Use the F edit descriptor for real variables in decimal form. Their syntax is Fw.d, where w is the width of the field and d is the number of decimal places, including the decimal sign. F6.0 therefore means a field of 6 characters of width with no decimal places.
Spaces can be added with the X control edit descriptor.
Repetitions of edit descriptors can be indicated with the number of repetitions before a symbol.
Groups can be created with (...), and they can be repeated if preceded by a number of repetitions.
No more items are printed beyond the last provided variable, even if the format specifies how to print more items than the ones actually provided - so you can ask for 31 repetitions even if for some months you will only print data for 30 or 28 days.
Besides,
New lines could be added with the / control edit descriptor; e.g., if you wanted to print the data with 10 values per row, you could do
WRITE(1000,'(4(10(F6.0,:,1X),/))') (month_data(d), d=1,no_days)
Note the : control edit descriptor in this second example: it indicates that, if there are no more items to print, nothing else should be printed - not even spaces corresponding to control edit descriptors such as X or /. While it could have been used in the previous example, it is more relevant here, in order to ensure that, if no_days is a multiple of 10, there isn't an empty line after the 3 rows of data.
If you want to completely remove the decimal symbol, you would need to rather print the nearest integers using the nint intrinsic and the Iw (integer) descriptor:
WRITE(1000,'(31(I6,1X))') (nint(month_data(d)), d=1,no_days)
I am trying to extract sections of a PDF file, for use in text analysis. I tried using pdfextract to accomplish this. However, a command such as
pdf-extract extract --regions --no-lines Bauer2010.pdf
only extract the (x,y) coordinates of a region, as in the example below.
<region x="226.32" y="750.47" width="165.57" height="6.37"
line_height="6.37" font="BGBFHO+AdvP4DF60E">Patient Education and
Counseling 79 (2010) 315-319</region>
Can sections of a PDF be extracted?
Have a look at http://text-analyzer.com where you can upload your PDF file and it will convert it into a format suitable for Natural Language Processing. Once converted into a text file it can then process the file, breaking it down into sentences with sentiment analysis. It has over 40 different types of sentence views where you can tag sections. Those tagged sentences can be exported.
I am making an Arduino weather station and I am outputting the data to a simple text file. But I want to make a like a year log of the highest and lowest temps. So my question is how can I select only the data between some symbols and then use it in VISUAL BASIC...For example my text file contains this string:"[29.11.2015 AT: 19:19:43] MR t. C:| 22.18 |Out t. C:| 7.36 |Aqu. H20 t. C:| 23.12 |Light(MR):| 1.63 | Door in MR:CLOSED!" and as you can see all the data is surrounded by these "|", can I make vb to get only this data and then compare it to previous one?
Take a look at TextFieldParser. Your delimiter will be the "|".
I have created a Fortran 90 code to filter and convert the text output of another program in a csv form. The file contains a table with columns of various types (character, real, integer). There is a column that generally contains decimal values (probability values). BUΤ, in some rows, where the value should be decimal "1.000", the value is actually integer "1".
I use "F5.3" specifier to read this column and I have the same format statement for every row of the table. So, when the code finds "1", it reads ".001", because it does not find a decimal point.
What ways could I use to correctly (and generally) read integers among other decimals?
Could I specify "unformatted" input only for a number of "spaces"?
The data edit descriptor fw.d for floating point format specification is for input normally used with zero d (it cannot be ommited). Nonzero d is used in the rare case when the floating point data is stored as scaled integers, or you do some unit conversion from the integer values.
You could try using list-directed input: use a * instead of a format specifier. This would be for the entire read, not selected items. Or you could read the lines into a string test their contents to decide how to read them. If the sub-string has a decimal point: read (string(M:N), '(F5.3)') value. If it doesn't, use a different format, e.g., perhaps read as as F5.0.
P.S. "unformatted" is reading binary data without conversion ... it is a direct copy of the data from the file to the data item. "listed-directed" is the Fortran term for reading & converting data without using a format specification.
well here's someting new to me: f90 allows a mix of comma and space delimiters for a simple list directed read:
read(unit,*)v1,v2,v3,v4
with input
1.222 2 , 3.14 , 4
yields
1.222000 2.000000 3.140000 4.000000
