I need to insert a word after every X (i.e. 4,5,6 etc) sentences in given text. I feel regex would be compact and good solution. To be specific, I need to do this in .net. regex can't identify some sentences ending with not so common punctuation, I am fine with it. I don't need 100% accuracy)

How I am making it work, is the software starts with a list of EVERY word. And when you spellcheck, it checks to see if the word you typed in matches any word in the list of every word (dictionary). And if not, it's misspelled. If so, then it's all coo'.The problem with this, is that I can only spellcheck one word at a time.So, I was thinking of somehow reading a sentence by words. Taking each word in order and putting them into a string. Then checking each word. My software is a learning software. I have a website that is meant to teach you computer programming. And one of the courses is Visual Basic (.NET).Visual Basic seems to be a popular programming course in High Schools so I decided that it would be a great language to add.
View 4 RepliesThe quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is an English-language pangram, alphabet! that is, a phrase that contains all of the letters of the alphabet. It has been used to test typewriters alphabet. and computer keyboards, and in other applications involving all of the letters in the English alphabet.I need to get the "alphabet." word in regex. In the above text there are 3 instances. It should not include "alphabet!". I just tried regex with
MatchCollection match = Regex.Matches(entireText, "alphabet.");
but this returns 4 instances including "alphabet!". How to omit this and get only "alphabet."
I want to create a regex to find words which have capital words in between them. Can anyone please tell me how to find it?For example: I went to a school forEducation and then didn't study.I want words like forEducation. I think we use [a-z][A-Z] to find all alphabets but can't really find it. I am thinking along the lines of merging the above two options, but then how is it going to check for capital alphabets? Also I wouldn't want to select any words which have capital letters in the start, because they are valid.Reason : This is occurring because of scraping text from online websites and they have no proper formatting. I get these words as text and want to replace them.
View 2 RepliesI am using a simple regular expression (in C#) to find a whole word within a block of text.
The word may appear at the beginning, end or in the middle of a the text or sentence with in the text.
The expression I have been using word has been working fine however if the word included a special character (that has been escaped) it no longer works. The boundary is essential so that we do not pick up words such as vb.net as a match for .net.[code]...
I have a string which consists of the raw HTML of a webpage. I would like to search for the first use of /imgres?imgurl= within the string and display the url of an image which follows exactly after it in a text box. Below is an example of part of the string: [URL]..In this case it would find /imgres?imgurl= then it would display [URL]...
View 2 Repliesi have to search a string for a few words eg, dog, cat, lion but i want regex to fail if lizard is found in the string even if it contains cat, dog or lion.ismatch(pass) "dog|cat|lion" "This is not your average cat!"ismatch (fail) ??? "This is not your average cat! It's a lizard."??? - here the regex statement is unknown word spaces and boundaries or lower/uppercase is not a concern. I run the string through Replace(" ", "").Trim(" ").ToLower before handover to Regex.
View 3 RepliesI've been hammering at this over the weekend with no joy - been through page after page of RegEx Language documentation too.It's very easy to negate a match on characters. For example:
Dim MatchString As System.String = "<test0><test0><test1></test1></test0></test0><test0></test0>"
Dim NegationPattern As System.String = "([^<>])"
Dim RepStr As System.String = ""

UPDATE. The word "Serial)" is generated dynamically. That means at least for me i could get another exception for another character too.
I am trying to split a long string based on an array of words.

View 3 RepliesI have an assignment that requires me to create 5 different arrays: nouns, adjectives, verbs, prepositions, and articles. From those 5 different arrays, it has to display 10 different random sentences in the listbox named lstRandomSentences. The sentences have to be in the following order:
<article> space <adjective> space <noun> space <verb> space <preposition> space <article> space <adjective> space <noun>. Each of those arrays have to be randomly chosen in the list box and that's what I am having trouble outputting randomly.
How to find the number for sentences in a String data ? Edit: Ok I came up with this after following Wipqozn's method

I Function SPLITyahoomessage () to intercept the statement, the statement should not be captured through the interception.
Here I use x () array to the breakpoint. But I say there are two windows in the pm 10:10 swept the first window of the sentence recorded in x (0) in. Then x (1) record from the second window of the sentence. Here is a very strange x (0) memory from the sentence.
Here are the features I want to achieve. It will break out in the interception of sentence in accordance with the procedure. But the second window x (1) I gradually during the scan, I found that x (1) had memorized the sentence re-enter SPLITyahoomessage () in the time x (1) into nothing.

I have a problem using my database in which I have a table with product names, codes, prices and information. I use the below method to get connected to my database and tables.

Basically I have two textboxes.
Textbox1: "(Hey|Hi|Yo)! My name is (John|Linda|Carl)"
Textbox2: Blank
What I want to do is to press a button and transfer the contents of Textbox1 to Textbox2. However, I want it to randomize the result by randomly selecting between the words in the parentheses. Now of course, the contents of Textbox1 are subject to change at any time, so I can't just add code for "Hey", "Hi" and "Yo". I need some sort of system in place that will generate random results no matter what I put in Textbox1. So I guess I have to search the string for "(", note the location and then search for "|" to isolate the characters in between as one word or phrase. Then search for ")" to determine the end of the randomizing and continuing normally until the next "(".
The user can enter text into the system but I want to detect if the previous string entered is the same as the next string entered. if it is an error message or something will appear.

Dim dtCOP As New AmetailorDataSet.COPDataTable
Dim adapterCOP As New AmetailorDataSetTableAdapters.COPTableAdapter

But in one row, I have product descriptions so there should be sentences. I set the type of this row is Text in the database. When I use single numbers in the table, there is no problem. But if I write sentences (that is a must because it is product description) or even a single word, I get the below error on adapterCOP.Fill(dtCOP):
"Input string was not in a correct format.Couldn't store <(the written text in description)> in Description Column. Expected type is Decimal."
There is a richtextbox in my form that should show the product description when the product code is selected from a listbox available in my form.
I need a series of sentences appear on my screen one after the other. I want to have the possibility of:
1) adding new sentences (as many as I want);
2) make them appear randomly;
3) control the time until the next sentence appears (or may be go to the next one by press of a button) (for EACH sentence(for short sentences shorter for long longer));
4) terminate the operation any time.
I imagine it like this: I start the program/application/file -> first sentence appears e.g. "I like ice cream" (randomly out of those that are in the body of the program or in the outside text file) -> it stays on the screen for 2 seconds (controllable) -> next sentence appears e.g. "Lisbon is the capital of Portugal" -> 2 seconds (controllable) -> "Apple is a fruit" and so on in a loop randomly choosing the sentences until I terminate the run of the program.
So my question is: What is the script? And what exactly do I have to do to realize that? My VB level is: installed it yesterday, learnt how to create a button and make "WELCOME TO VISUAL BASIC 2010" message appear on my screen, search all over the internet trying to solve my problem but found only how to generate random numbers.

I am having an issue where I am using regex.Replace to replace part of a string. The basic idea is that I want to capture the beginning of the string then replace the end of the string with a value from code. For an example pretend I have a string that says "Test Number " followed by number and I want to increment that number. I capture the "Test Number " but when I try to concatenate that capture with the new number it treats the capture ($1) as a literal and replaces the entire string with $1[new number].
[code]...
This will output "We are on Test Number 2", as expected. how I can use a variable in the replacement string portion of the Regex.Replace when including a captured group?
I'm trying to create a program that produces random sentences as output. With five arrays of strings, one each for nouns, adjectives, verbs, prepositions, and articles. Each array should hold several words for that part of speech. It's supposed to generate sentences by randomly choosing eight words (randomly generating eight array indices) from these arrays, always constructing sentences by using the parts of speech in the following order: article, adjective, noun, verb, preposition, article, adjective, noun.Also, theh code should be properly modularized so that the code to generate each part of speech is not repeated.
