I have an NSString of integer values. I need to add each one of the integers as a separate object in an NSMutableArray.
I tried characterAtIndex: but I keep getting errors…
P.s. I've solved over 30 problems thank's to stackoverflow's search, but didn't find any information on this problem.
NSMutableArray *results = [NSMutableArray array];
for (int i = 0; i < [string length]; i++)
{
NSString *substr = [string substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(i,1)];
[results addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:[substr intValue]];
}
NSLog(#" %# separated into: %#", string, results);
Consider looking at componentsSeparatedByString: or componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet: for your purpose. Both methods are available on NSString.
If your integers are more than one digit or are space-separated, consider alternately using an NSScanner - you can read instances of NSInteger off the string one by one, wrap them in NSNumbers, and stick them in your array.

i have a string like 112.1 or 102.2 etc now i want to get the substring before dot and after the dot using objective c, means i want to get 2 substrings like this 112 and 1. please guide. Regards Saad.
Try the following:
NSArray *arrayWithTwoStrings = [yourString componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
Using this method you'll get NSArray containing string components that were separated by "." string, that is "112" and "1" for "112.1" string. After that you can access them using array's objectAtIndex: method.
P.S. Note also that if you're going to use numeric values of those strings there might be better solution
NSString *str = yourstr;
NSArray *Array = [str componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
NSString *t = [Array objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *t1 = [Array objectAtindex:1];
NSArray* components = [yourString componentsSeparatedByString:#"."];
I want to create a comma-separated string like this.
NSString *list = #"iPhone,iPad,iPod";
I tried like this,
[strItemList appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#,", [[arrItems objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
But the issue is I'm getting a string like this
#"iPhone,iPad,iPod," Note that there is an extra comma "," at the end of the string. How can I avoid that extra comma?
Can you please give me a hint. Highly appreciated
Thanks in advance
To join an array of strings into a single string by a separator (character which would be a string), you could use this method of NSArray class:
NSArray* array = #[#"iPhone", #"iPad", #"iPod"];
NSString* query = [array componentsJoinedByString:#","];
By using this method, you won't need to drop the last extra comma (or whatever) because it won't add it to the final string.
There's a couple of routes you can take.
If the number of items is always the same, and known before hand (which I guess isn't the case, but I mention it for completeness's sake), just make the whole string at once:
[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#,%#,%#", [[arrItems objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:#"ItemList"]], [[arrItems objectAtIndex:1] objectForKey:#"ItemList"]], [[arrItems objectAtIndex:2] objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]
Knowing that the unwanted comma will always be the last character in the string, you can make removing it the last step in construction:
} // End of loop
[strItemList removeCharactersInRange:(NSRange){[strItemList length] - 1, 1}];
Or you can change your thinking a little and do the loop like this:
NSString * comma = #"";
for( i = 0; i < [arrItems count]; i++ ){
[strItemList appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#%#", comma, [[arrItems objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
comma = #",";
}
Notice that comma comes before the other item. Setting that string inside the loop means that nothing will be added on the first item, but a comma character will be for every other item.
After Completion of loop add below stmt
strItemList = [strItemList substringToIndex:[strItemList length]-1]
check the value of array count if array count is last then add without comma else add with comma. try this out i am not sure to much about.
if([arrItems objectAtIndex:i] == arrItems.count){
[strItemList appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", [[arrItems objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
}
else {
[strItemList appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#,", [[arrItems objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
}
Assuming that arrItems is an NSArray with elements #"iPhone", #"iPad", and #"iPod", you can do this:
NSArray *list = [arrItems componentsJoinedByString:#","]
NSArray with elements #"iPhone", #"iPad", and #"iPod"
NSString *str=[[arrItems objectAtIndex:0]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]
str = [str stringByAppendingFormat:#",%#",[[arrItems objectAtIndex:1]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
str = [str stringByAppendingFormat:#",%#",[[arrItems objectAtIndex:2]objectForKey:#"ItemList"]]];
NsLog(#"%#",str);
// Assuming...
NSDictionary *dictionary1 = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"iPhone", #"iPodTouch", nil] forKey:#"ItemList"];
NSDictionary *dictionary2 = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"iPad", #"iPad2", #"Apple TV", nil] forKey:#"ItemList"];
NSDictionary *dictionary3 = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"iMac", #"MacBook Pro", #"Mac Pro", nil] forKey:#"ItemList"];
NSArray *arrItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:dictionary1, dictionary2, dictionary3, nil];
// create string list
NSString *strItemList = [[arrItems valueForKeyPath:#"#unionOfArrays.ItemList"] componentsJoinedByString:#", "];
NSLog(#"All Items List: %#", strItemList);
Output:
All Items List: iPhone, iPodTouch, iPad, iPad2, Apple TV, iMac, MacBook Pro, Mac Pro
This method will return you the nsmutablestring with comma separated values from an array
-(NSMutableString *)strMutableFromArray:(NSMutableArray *)arr withSeperater:(NSString *)saperator
{
NSMutableString *strResult = [NSMutableString string];
for (int j=0; j<[arr count]; j++)
{
NSString *strBar = [arr objectAtIndex:j];
[strResult appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",strBar]];
if (j != [arr count]-1)
{
[strResult appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",seperator]];
}
}
return strResult;
}
I have the follow code:
NSArray *myArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: #"e", #"è", #"é",#"i","ò",nil];
NSString *string = #"simpleè";
NSMutablestring *newString;
for(i=0>;i< [string length]; i++){
if([stringa characterAtIndex:i] is in Array){
[newString appendFormat:#"%c", [string characterAtIndex:i]];
}
}
How make finding if single char of string stay in the array?
Example of result:
newString= #"ieè";
I think you want to apply rangeOfCharacterFromSet:options:range: repeatedly. You'll have to create a NSCharacterSet from the characters in your array somehow.
Added
Though it probably would be just as simple to just loop through the string with characterAtIndex and compare each char (in an inner loop) to the chars in your array (which you could extract into a unichar array or put into a single NSString to make easier to access).
Umm... if you want to check what the values are you can use NSLog
NSLog"%f", myFloat;
So you can use this to check your array... Which is what I think you are asking for, but the grammar in your question isn't very good. Please provide more details and better grammar.
You should check the length of your string and then match your string characters with the array and if found append that character in a new string.
NSString *mstr = #"asdf";
NSString *b = [ mstr characterAtIndex:0];
Hope it helps.......
You'll want to create an NSCharacterSet with the characters in the string and then ask each string in the array for its rangeOfCharacterFromSet:. If you find one where a range was actually found, then a character from the string is in the array. If not, then none of them are.
This might seem a bit roundabout, but Unicode makes looking at strings as just a series of "chars" rather unreliable, and you'll want to let your libraries do as much of the heavy lifting for you as they can.
There are better ways to do this, but this is what I think you're trying to do:
NSMutableString* result= [NSMutableString stringWithString:#""];
for( int i= 0; i < [string length]; ++i ) {
NSString* c= [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%C", [string characterAtIndex:i]];
if( [myArray containsObject:c] )
[result appendString:c];
}
i have to create an 2images and 3 labels by using code (cgrectmake)and i am having X location, y location, width and height all are stored in arrays(which i have retrieved from the web services)how can i create the image and labels can any one help me
You can join the elements of an array together with the NSString componentsJoinedByString class method:
NSString myString = [myNSArray componentsJoinedByString:#"x"];
where x is the characters you'd like to appear between each array element.
Edited to add
So in your newly-added code if these are the label values:
lbl = #"zero"
lbl1 = #"one"
lbl2 = #"two"
and you want to join them together with a space character then if you did this:
NSString *temp = [labelArray componentsJoinedByString:#" "];
NSLog(#"temp = %#", temp);
then this is what would be logged:
zero one two
Edited to further add
If you are instead trying to join the label values together to make xml elements then you might do something like this:
NSString *joinedElements = [labelArray componentsJoinedByString:#"</label><label>"];
NSString *temp = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"<label>%#</label>", joinedElements];
NSLog(#"temp = %#", temp);
then this is what would be logged:
<label>zero</label><label>one</label><label>two</label>
may be this is usefull to you.
NSString *str;
str = [arrayName objectAtIndex:i(Index NO)];
OK by this easily you can access object from the array. any type of object u can fetch this way only reception object type are change in left side.
Best of Luck.
Most objects have a -description method which returns a string representation of the object:
- (NSString *)description;
For example:
NSArray *array = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"The", #"quick", #"brown", #"fox", nil];
NSLog(#"%#", array); // prints the contents of the array out to the console.
NSString *arrayDescription = [array description]; // a string
It would help to know what you want to do with the string (how will you use the string). Also, what kind of objects do you have in the array?
In that case, Matthew's answer is one possibility. Another might be to use an NSMutableString and append the individual items, if you need control over how the string is created:
NSMutableString *string = [NSMutableString string];
if ([array count] >= 3) {
[string appendString:[array objectAtIndex:0]];
[string appendFormat:#"blah some filler text %#", [array objectAtIndex:1]];
[string appendString:[array objectAtIndex:2]];
}
I'm trying to include the elements of an array in the NSString that's returned by the -description method in my class. No clue how to do this in Objective-C...in Java there's string concatenation or StringBuilder, what's the equivalent in Obj-C?
TIA..
Just use NSArray's componentsJoinedByString: method with whatever you want between them as the argument.
NSString *elementsSquishedTogether = [myArray componentsJoinedByString:#""];
NSString *connectedByACommaAndSpace = [myArray componentsJoinedByString:#", "];
If you have a C array, you can turn it into an NSArray with NSArray *converted = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:yourCArray count:yourArrayCount].
The title of your thread talks about C arrays, so here's a modification of jsumners' answer that will deal wiith C arrays.
myArray is assumed to be an ivar declared thusly:
int* myArray;
storage for myArray is assumed to be malloc'd at some point and the size of it is in an ivar declared:
int myArraySize;
The code for description goes something like
- (NSString *)description
{
NSMutableString *returnString = [[[NSMutableString alloc] init] autorelease];
for (int i = 0 ; i < myArraySize ; i++)
{
if (i > 0)
{
[returnString appendString: #", "];
}
[returnString appendFormat: #"%d", myArray[i]];
}
return [NSString stringWithFormat: #"[%#]", returnString];
}
There are variations. The above version formats the string with bracket delimiters and commas between elements. Also, it returns an NSString instead of an NSMutableString which is not a big deal, but I feel that if you say you are returning an immutable object, you probably should.
The following could should "build" a string representation of your array. Notice that it is using the -description method of the objects in the array. If you want something different you will have to make the necessary change.
- (NSString *)description: (id) myArr {
NSMutableString *returnString = [[[NSMutableString alloc] init] autorelease];
for (int i = 0, j = [myaArr count]; i < j; i++) {
[returnString appendString: [[myArr objectAtIndex: i] description]];
}
return [NSString stringWithString: returnString];
}
Edit:
As JeremyP said, I answered this using Objective-C arrays. I guess I just forgot the question when I started writing my code. I'm going to leave my answer as an alternative way to do it, though. I've also fixed the return string type from a mutable string to an immutable string (as it should be).
