Spaces in string

Dear Gurus,
I have a string .
'My name is Roshan Lilaram Wadhwani'
I need to find the number of spaces used in this string.
Rather i need to segregate the string in two parts after a particular number of spaces.
Regards,
Roshan Lilaram.

TRY THIS
DATA : TEXT(50) VALUE 'My name is Roshan Lilaram Wadhwani',
       LEN TYPE I,
       POS TYPE I,
       COUNTER TYPE I,
       V_CH,
       V_SPACE VALUE ' ',
       V_TXT(30),
       V_TXT2(20).
COMPUTE LEN = STRLEN( TEXT ).
DO LEN TIMES.
V_CH = TEXT+POS(1).
IF V_CH EQ SPACE.
COUNTER = COUNTER + 1.
ENDIF.
IF COUNTER LT 3.
CONCATENATE V_TXT V_CH INTO V_TXT.
ELSE.
CONCATENATE V_TXT2 V_CH INTO V_TXT2.
ENDIF.
POS = POS + 1.
ENDDO.
WRITE : / V_TXT.
WRITE : / V_TXT2.

Adding white spaces between strings during concatenation in JSTL

Please provide a way to add white space between strings during concatenation in JSTL.
I tried the following.
eg:
<c:set var="even_odd" value="odd">
<c:out value="first ${even_odd}"/>
I want the output string as "first odd ".
Moreover i am using the above value for generating the class attribute of a row of a table like
<tr class=<c:out value="first ${even_odd}"/>>
while printing the value of <c:out value="first ${even_odd}"/> in the page,i am getting correctly as i needed as "first odd".
But while taking the code of the page while rendering by the browser, it is showing like
<tr class="first" odd="">
I think the white space is the problem.
Please provide any solution or hint.

<tr class=<c:out value="first ${even_odd}"/>><tr class="first ${even_odd}">

NULL option of column command - ignore word after space in string

Hi,
I'm quit new to Oracle and SQL world.
building simple SQL/Plus report through SQL Developer enviroment:
I'm trying to use NULL option of COLUMN comand to output a meaningful string instead null.
But, any word after space in string.
Followings are what I wrote on worksheet and excute 'Run Script'.
COLUMN firedate NULL 'active';
COLUMN mentorid NULL 'no mentor';
select lastname, firstname, mentorid, firedate from members;
refer to line (COLUMN mentorid NULL 'no mentor';) the out put for the MentorId, display word no and ignore any word after space which is here word mentor.
My environment:
SqL Developer ver. 3.1.07.
Oracle database 10g Express edition (10.2.0.1.0)
windows XP
Much appreciated.

SQL Developer is still not 100% SQL Plus compatible. It may be that this isn't implemented properly yet.
Does it work in SQL Plus?

How to delete Spaces in String

Can somebody help to modify my source, cos i want to delete certain space. Thanks
private static String printStar(int SpaceForStar){

 for(int i =0; i<8; i++){
 sTtlSpace = sTtlSpace - sDelOneSpace; // seem that not working.. can somebody help Thanks
 return sTtlSpace+star;
}Thanks in advance

What you are trying to do will not work - subtraction of Strings does not make any sense.
To remove spaces, I suggest you use a StringTokenizer with space as dividing token. Lop trough the tokens and add them to a new String, like this:
 public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
 String withSpace = "aaa sss bbb";
 System.out.println(removeSpaces(withSpace));
 static String removeSpaces(String withSpaces) {
 java.util.StringTokenizer t = new java.util.StringTokenizer(withSpaces, " ");
 StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer("");
 while (t.hasMoreTokens()) {
 result.append(t.nextToken());
 return result.toString();
 }This will remove all spaces, and print "aaasssbbb". If you only want to remove the first or the last space, you can use indexOf() or lastIndexOff to find the space, and then substring to pick the text before and after that space and concatenate those two strings to a new string without the space:
 static String removeFirstSpace(String withSpaces) {
 int spaceIndex = withSpaces.indexOf(' '); //use lastIndexOf to remove last space
 if (spaceIndex < 0) { //no spaces!
 return withSpaces;
 return withSpaces.substring(0, spaceIndex)
 + withSpaces.substring(spaceIndex+1, withSpaces.length());
 }

How to handle spaces in string?

Hi,
I am trying to filter out servers and certain OS from my powershell line below but I am getting an error. I think it is because of the Mac OS X line with spaces?:
The string is missing the terminator: '
$AllADClientObjects=@(Get-ADComputer -Filter "operatingSystem -notlike '*server*'" -and "operatingSystem -notlike '*"'Mac OS X'*'" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)

Try this:
$AllADClientObjects = @(Get-ADComputer -Filter "operatingSystem -notlike '*server*' -and operatingSystem -notlike '*Mac OS X*'")
You shouldn't need the -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue when using filter because if it doesn't find anything, it will not throw an error like if you used -Identity.

Search for White space within strings

create table emp_dtl
(empname varchar2(23));
Insert into emp_dtl values ('WAYNE');
Insert into emp_dtl values ('JOSEPH KRUPP'); --------- has white space
Insert into emp_dtl values ('YING ZONG LEE'); --------- has white space
Insert into emp_dtl values ('COHEN');
Insert into emp_dtl values ('MARIE');How can i search for empnames which has White space in it? From other OTN threads, I gathered that this has something to do with
chr(32)But i don't know how to put this in LIKE operator.

Hi,
SELECT *
FROM emp_dtl
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE (empname, '\s')
;will look for any kind of whitespace (including spaces, which are CHR (32)).
It may be more efficient to specifically list all the different whitespace characters, and see if the string changes when you remove all of them:
SELECT *
FROM emp_dtl
WHERE empname != TRANSLATE ( empname
 , 'x ' || CHR (9) -- CHR (9) = <tab>
 || CHR (10) -- CHR (10) = <newline>
 || CHR (13) -- CHR (13) = <return>
 , 'x'

Making space for string (character) in Java

A permutation is a function. In this particulate exercise, the function is certain space separation of an adjacent letter. Here is an example for the space is 2: After the first letter A, skip 2 spaces and arrive at D, skip another 2 space to arrive at G, so original ABC maps to adg.
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
maps to (with skip of 2 space):
adgjmpsvybehknqtwzcfilorux
You need to have a user input for the skip space, similar to the lab 1. Warning: Because there are 26 characters in the English alphabetic, if user enters an even number, you need to consider add one every time it passes the Z letter. Please help me to solve this problem.

Try using this code segment:
String abcString = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
StringBuffer tempBuffer = new StringBuffer();
StringBuffer outBuffer = new StringBuffer();
tempBuffer.append(abcString);
i = 0;
while(i < abcString.length())
outBuffer.append(tempBuffer.charAt(i));
i+=2;
tempBuffer.setLength(0);
All you really need to do is change what you're adding to I every time you go through the loop, make it user input. This is simply an example of how to do it.

Remote white space from string

Hi I need a method which will remove the spaces in a string eg "Hello World" -> "HelloWorld"
I have the code below but it dosnt work for the obvious reason charAt() returns a char and im comparing to a string.
Can anyone offer any help? Thanks
 public void removeSpace(String s)
 { int rs = s.length();
 String cat;
 for (int i=0;i<rs;i++) {
 cat = s.charAt(i).toString();
 if (cat==" ") {
 s.replace(""," ");

Hi,
You can't modify the contents of a String, you must create a new String, and use that one. Your code should be:
public String removeSpace(String s) {
 return s.replaceAll(" ", "");
}The returned string is the string without spaces.

Using Bash/Applescript to get rid of spaces in string

Hi Community,
Is there a way through Bash (or if not, through applescript) to delete the spaces in a string? ie. turn the string "hi my name is batman" to "himynameisbatman". Thanks.

As you can see, there really are a rediculous number of ways to accomplish this task! Here are a couple more AppleScript examples...
--DO SHELL SCRIPT EXAMPLE
set theString to "hi my name is batman"
do shell script "echo " & quoted form of theString & " | tr -d ' '"
--PURE APPLESCRIPT EXAMPLE
set theString to "hi my name is batman"
(words of theString) as string

Removing \n and leading spaces with String.replaceAll()

I am trying to format a large XML string that contains carriage returns and lines with leading spaces. Something like this (pseudo example)...
s: "<a>
��some text
��<c>
��<d>more text</d>
��</c>
</a>"When i am done, i want it to look like this...
s: "<a>some text<c><d>more text</d></c></a>"I have tried using replaceAll() in this way....
s = s.replaceAll("^\\s+","");// to remove leading spaces
s = s.replaceAll("\\n","");// to remove carriage returnsHowever, I am not getting the results I expect. In fact, the entire string seems to simply turn into all whitespace....
s: " "My question is: Is there an easier way? (or at least a way that works?)

try this:
public String transformXML(String s) {
 s = s.replace("^\\s+", "");
 s = s.replace("\\s+$", "");
 s = s.replace("\\s+", " ");
 s = s.replace("\\s*<\\s*([^<>]*?)\\s*>\\s*", "<$1>");
 return s;
}which would transform your example expression from:
<a>
some text
<c>
<d>more text</d>
</c>
</a>
to probably what you want:
<a>some text<c><d>more text</d></c></a>
Hope this helps~

Remove spaces in String

Lets say I have a String like this " 323232323 3434324". How do I remove the spaces in the beginning so I get the following result "323232323 3434324" ?
It's not a fixed number of spaces in the beginning. It could also be e.g " 323232323 3434324"

I think this should work:
String otherString;
String yourString = " 12345";
for( int i = 0; i < yourString.length(); i++ ){
 if ( yourString.charAt(i) != ' ' ){
 otherString = yourString.subString( i );
 break;
}

You probably need to change the database encoding. Just a guess since your code doesn't reveal the problem area!!!!!!!!

Preserve spaces between strings...

Hi everyone,
I an trying to extract some data to a flat file in a format that each column has start and end positions.
I am trying to pad some "spaces" after each column to get my requirement.My code is not preserving the
spaces between each string.
This is what i have..
But the strange thing i found is..i ran the following code
declare
final_str varchar2(100);
begin
final_str := rpad('12',4)||rpad('12',4);
insert into test(col1) values (final_str);
end;and it is preserving the spaces .
Is there anything wrong with my code.I need to preserve the spaces after each string.
Please help me to solve this issue..
Thanks

Hi Phani,
If you use chars instead of varchar2's you keep fixed lengths.
F.i.:
SQL> declare
2 a varchar2(50);
3 b char(50);
4 begin
5
6 for rec in ( select level*100 l from dual connect by level <= 5)
7 loop
8 a:=rec.l;
9 b:=rec.l;
10 dbms_output.put_line('>'||a ||'< (lenghth a = '||length(a)||')');
11 dbms_output.put_line('>'||b ||'< (lenghth b = '||length(b)||')');
12 end loop;
13 end;
14 /
100< (lenghth a = 3)
100 < (lenghth b = 50)
200< (lenghth a = 3)
200 < (lenghth b = 50)
300< (lenghth a = 3)
300 < (lenghth b = 50)
400< (lenghth a = 3)
400 < (lenghth b = 50)
