Syntax
list insert( list dest, int index, string src1, [, string src2, ...] )
Description
insert constructs a list by inserting strings into a list at the specified position. Note that the first element in the list is index: 0. If the index is greater than the length of the specified list (for example, 999), then the strings append to the end of the list.
Returns the newly constructed list.
Example
trustedusers={"jamie", "cory", "robyn"};
a=insert(trustedusers, 1, "leslie");
sets a to the list:
{"jamie", "leslie", "cory", "robyn"}
Syntax
string join( list X [, string delimiter] )
Description
join returns a string constructed by concatenating each element of list X. Each element of the string is separated by delimiter. The default delimiter is a space character.
Example
trustedusers={"jamie", "cory", "robyn"};
print(join(trustedusers, "\n"));
Prints the following string:
jamie
cory
robyn
Syntax
int length( list|string X )
Description
length returns the number of elements in the specified list or the number of characters in the specified string.
Example
trustedusers={"jamie", "cory", "robyn"};
print(length(trustedusers));
Syntax
string lsubst( list X, string pattern, string replacement )
Description
lsubst substitutes part of a string with another string throughout all or a specified part of a list X.
Example
print(lsubst({"xxxonexxx","xxxonexxx"},"one","two"));
#prints the following list
#"{xxxtwoxxx,xxxtwoxxx}"
