Converting Some Php Code That Tries To Get A String To A Length That Is Divisible By A Certain Number?
Dec 10, 2009
I'm converting some php code that tries to get a string to a length that is divisible by a certain number, say 10. To do so it appends "�" to the string to make up for the difference. In other words, it does something like:
dim difference as integer = 10 - (str.Length Mod 10)
for i as integer = 1 to difference
str += "�"
next
But the problem for me is that "�", which is the ascii code for the null character, is two strings and I don't believe that when VB loops over resultant string it will view that as one character. what could I append the string with to retain the expected behavior?

I'm pulling records from a db table (sybase) where I have run into a problem with a long varchar field. Using the OLEdb class I convert the field into a string variable which works fine in most cases, but there are problem with a few records. Examining the field in the database it shows that the value is not null, but the length of the field is 0.(SELECT field, length(field) FROM table). When I try to convert this into a string the result is rubbish.strContent = objReader.Item(i). I can't figure out what's the problem here, so I have avoided the issue by doing a table update before I start the process of getting data (I set the field value to null if field.length = 0

For example, how would I get the # "220" from the number "229". Or the number "300" from "309"? The only way I've found to do this is using string stuff, but I'm afraid of the overhead for strings?

I was wondering what the fastest way is to check for divisibility in VB.NET.I tried the following two functions, but I feel as if there are more efficient techniques.
Function isDivisible(x As Integer, d As Integer) As Boolean
Return Math.floor(x / d) = x / d
End Function
Another one I came up with:
Function isDivisible(x As Integer, d As Integer) As Boolean
Dim v = x / d
Dim w As Integer = v
Return v = w
End Function

I'm using this code to return some string from a tcpclient but when the string comes back it has a leading " character in it. I'm trying to remove it but the Len() function is reading the number of bytes instead of the string itself. How can I alter this to give me the length of the string as I would normally use it and not of the array underlying the string itself?
Dim bytes(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize) As Byte
networkStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize))
' Output the data received from the host to the console.'
[code]....
Len() reports the number of bytes not the number of characters in the string.

[URL]..From the above link,i studied about the conversion.But i have a confusion:Whats the difference between the following two?CInt(myString) VB Only. This function converts the expression to an integer. A run-time exception is generated if the conversion fails.
Convert.ToInt32(myString) This function converts the expression to an integer. A run-time exception is generated if the conversion fails.
When should i use the first one and when to use the second one?

I'm having trouble getting information from a webpage. I've managed to collect a specific string from the webpage, and I want to convert it into a number, but the problem is, is the number is into the thousands, and it can't convert right normally. How could I convert the string, to a number, minus the comma(s)?

I was trying to figure out how to convert a string (that the user would input to the program via a textbox) into actual code for the program to compile. For example, if the user was to enter: (5*100)+(20-3). How could you take that inputted string, and have the program solve it and return the value?

If using the following in an if statement I get an error: If trg.Name.Substring(4, 6).ToUpper <> ("ABCDEF") Then I get the error: "Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length"
I assume this is because the string (trg.name) is too small for the 4, 6 substring. What would be the correct method of working around this problem? VB.net Studio 2008.

I'm writing some code that takes a report from the mainframe and converts it to a spreadsheet. They can't edit the code on the MF to give me a delimited file, so I'm stuck dealing with it as fixed width. It's working okay now, but I need to get it more stable before I release it for testing. My problem is that in any given line of data, say it could have three columns of numbers, each five chars wide at positions 10, 16, and 22. If on this one particular row, there's no data for the last two cols, it won't be padded with spaces; rather, the length of the string will be only 14. So, I can't just blindly have
