tokenize help

[Xaviar]

will tokenize2 +,blah+blah blah return
#t(0) - blah
#t(1) - blah blah

or will it return

#t(0) - blah
#t(1) - blah
#t(2) - blah

and if it returns the latter...how do I get it to return the former? especially if I dont know how many words will be in my string?

tokenize breaks a string into sections based on words and commas...tokenize2 breaks a string into sections based on "delimiters" which you specify before the string....Im just not sure if it uses spaces and commas too =/

delims are used as the space. the delim for the normal tokinizing is space. so if you change it like you said it would return what u said o.o
and if you dont know how long ur string is then you can just do tokenscount which returns the number of tokens.

nope dude..I tried...tokenize2 +,blah blah blah; returns
#t(0) - blah
#t(1) - blah
#t(2) - blah

Say you have 2 strings:
setstring this.teststring,This is a test;
setstring this.teststring2,This is "a test";

Now, lets tokenize the first one:
tokenize #s(this.teststring);

This is what it returns:
#t(0) - This
#t(1) - is
#t(2) - a
#t(3) - test

Now, lets tokenize the second string:
tokenize #s(this.teststring2);

This is what it returns:
#t(0) - This
#t(1) - is
#t(2) - a test

As you can see, putting parenthesis around something tells tokenize to count everything inside the parenthesis as 1 token.

As for tokenize2, it will tokenize via space's AND the delimeters, so:

setstring this.teststring3,My computer's name is Samson;
tokenize2 s,#s(this.teststring3);

This is what it returns:
#t(0) - My
#t(1) - computer'
#t(2) - name
#t(3) - i
#t(4) - am
#t(5) - on

Hope that helps
