While continuing the cleanup instigated by the previously mentioned documentary, I threw out quite a lot of stuff. If you only want the last score you can use a negative index to count from the right: $each+ĭownload it now, or use the online version. Notice there is a different number of scores for each player. When you have jagged data, you often want to read the last column, or the second last column: basically you want to count the columns starting from the left. We just do our best to handle for what we get. In NimbleText we can't pick and choose the data we are handed. This can happen for a variety of reasons. Sometimes the data you are parsing is 'jagged' meaning different rows have a different number of columns. Which means you can reuse your patterns more often. This basically means you can stash 'global variables' into the first row and access them in your pattern. The result will be: The person with name Jim has age 126 Within your pattern you can refer to the first item in the header as $h0, and the second item as $h1, and so on. Say you have some simple data that includes a header row: name, age You can now refer to the first row of the data from inside any row, using a ' $h' pattern. Here's a quick rundown of the new features: Header Variables It's a versatile little tool that every programmer, DBA, sysadmin, knowledge worker and techie should keep within reach.
#CLEAN TEXT WITH NIMBLETEXT CODE#
NimbleText is a tool for manipulating little bits of data, for formatting text, for performing ad-hoc code generation. If you don't already use NimbleText every single day then you're missing out.
Jetboat, the mildly anticipated new release of NimbleText is out now.
