I want to replace the text in a string "Sin()" with the computed value for Math.Sin() where is...anything. My problem: The string can have more than one right parenthesis. Also, since it is performing mathematical operations, it would have to know how to do the innermost ones first.

I'm wanting to search a RTB for all X coordinate values and convert them to SI mm units.
I have two issues: 1. My code is stopping after the first instance of match.success, I'm guessing i'm using nextmatch incorrectly? I have also tried matchcollections with no success.
2. I fear once we get it progressing to the next X value, any multiple X values with the same dimension will be replaced with my replace command, causing the new value to be converted again.
Dim MatchObj As Match = Regex.Match(RichTextBox1.Text, "[Xx](?<X>(d*.{1,1}d{1,4}))(s)*")

How would I go about replacing a portion of text in a text file with a string?

Chairman Joe Smith has announced a new plan to decrease expenditures by outsourcing the planning of the new dining hall. Smith states the current project managers do not have excess time to commit to this new project and this will be less costly than hiring a new or contract project manager.
Now what I am trying to do is take any instances of Chairman Joe Smith, or Joe Smith, or Smith, or Chairman Smith and put that in a link to his profile/bio. Using any string methods that I know of (string replace, string builder, add text to before and after a matching string) I would run into the problem when scanning for Smith and then any of the other names.[code]...

What would be the most quickest way to edit a text file on a remote host?
View 3 RepliesI have to find a string in a huge text file ( ~ 50MB) and then replace it.Since it's quite huge I tend to open the file and then read line by line, and then replace the necessary line(s) (rather than "readall" the file of course).My question is how to replace the whole line?Let's say I found the line that should be replaced . I know I can create a copy file and copy all lines into there ... but I'd prefer to replace the line in the original file rather than creating a copy instance.
View 5 RepliesI would like to step through each *.txt file in a given directory, open it, find and replace all, perhaps a thousand, occurances of a given string (e.g. "00/00/00"), then close and save file, and step to next one in the directory to do the same find and replace. I've been looking at filestream classes and regular expressions but don't see a clear way to do this.

The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

I put my code together and after running it look at the file and it's unchanged. After looking closer it appears the problem is the find & replace operation I am doing on the string. Here is my code:

well i am having a couple of issues with this particular homework problem and this is my first programming class so there is probably quite a few mistakes well the homework problem is to take three double values entered by a user and display the largest and smallest using math.max and math.min and display the smallest and largest so i thought i could use a listbox and take the values that went to the listbox and assign variables to each so i can try to use each variable in the math.max and min but im not making it to far and i actually might be way off

My original example could be solved using other methods. This example is more representative of the actual problem:

Given a string as a form of input (parsed from an input file) which represents a number and a mathematical operator (<, >, <=, >=, !, !=, and a few others), what is a really fastefficient way to chop off that operator, compare it to a list of valid operators, and then set an "operator" variable to a state (i.e., Enum) representing the identified operator, then return just the number (as a string)?I'm open to various ideas and implementations.I've tried several (about 6-7) myself, and find I'm not really satisfied with the speedThe fastest so far is a For Each loop that walks my list of "valid operators", and compares that operator's string representation against the chopped off bit from the numeric string. I determine the amount to chop off by the length of each valid operator in the valid list.
Here's a code example of the fastest implementation. Assume input like <378 and a valid ops list of <, >, !, or >=79 and a valid ops list of <=, >=:

how to go about populating some text boxes with results from calculations. To be more specific, I'm trying to do some trig to calculate various parts of a ci0rcle and will be populating any two of the text boxes then click on a button to get the missing values. I was thinking along the lines of a loop until all values have been calculated.
View 14 RepliesI have two text boxes on my form. text box 1 allows a user to type in a number (decimal) and text box 2 will display the smallest number typed in so far. The idea is to find the smallest number typed in by the user in text box 1, by using the Math.min method to compare each number typed in by the user to a variable that contains the smallest number to the point. Then replace the variable value with the smaller of the two numbers. To make it work for the first number. I have to initialize the variable to 99999. (no if else statements should be used).
View 3 RepliesProblem: Your task is to take input from the user in string and give the following options to the user in a menu.
1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.
