Numerics in a string...

Former Member — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 08:29:22 GMT

Hi all!

I am looking for a FM to find and identify numerics or alphanumerics contained in a string. I know I can use 'ca'... but I look for a standard FM.

Thanks!

Miguel Angel.

Hello!

Really what I need is a FM that says me...

String_In: AB12C

Results:

Position1: char

Position2: char

Position3: num

Position4: num

Position5: char

or something like this...

Thanks!

Hi,

CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT

converts any number into a string fill with zeroes, with the number at the extreme right

Example:

input = 123

output = 0000000000000...000000000000123

CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT

converts any number with zeroes right into a simple integer

Example:

input = 00000000000123

output = 123

Reward if helpful.

then chandrasekhar gives you the correct fm here only you have to process character by character of a string...

data : text(15) value 'ABC12D',

len type i,

pos type i,

vchar.

compute len = strlen( text ).

do len times.

vchar = text+pos(1).

now use fm numeric_check and pass vchar here in eimport param you get htype.

write : / 'Pos', sy-index ,' is', htype.

pos = pos + 1.

enddo.

Thanks Shiba!

You are right, but i'm looking for the same functionality you said, but in a standard FM. There is any like this? If no, there is no problem, I will say to my partner I need to create a Z function.

Thanks all!

Hi,

Try this,

data: c(10) type c.

c = '15684648ab'.

if c co '0123456789'.

write:/ 'All numeric'.

else.

write:/ 'Not all numeric'.

endif.
