I read various threads and theories regarding two string matching and convert matching value into Percentage. there are some algorithms to calculate similarity like Lowenstein, but sometimes you need more then that So, I written this code, and you will use it at your convenience script matches two strings with word by word OR character by character also match by case OR non case format you can also find difference with (100 – Result) If any suggestion then please write here #include <Array.au3> #include <File.au3> #include <Math.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <StringConstants.au3> $sStr01 = "My string Software v1.0" $sStr02 = "My String Software v1.1" ConsoleWrite("Standard: " & _StringMatchPercent($sStr01, $sStr02) & @CRLF) ; Return Standard: 95.65 ConsoleWrite("Case ON (Char lvl): " & _StringMatchPercent($sStr01, $sStr02, 1, 0) & @CRLF) ; Return "Case ON (Char lvl): 91.3" ConsoleWrite("Case ON (word lvl): " & _StringMatchPercent($sStr01, $sStr02, 1, 1) & @CRLF) ; Return "Case ON (word lvl): 50" ConsoleWrite("Case Off (Char lvl): " & _StringMatchPercent($sStr01, $sStr02, 0, 0) & @CRLF) ; Return "Case Off (Char lvl): 95.65" ConsoleWrite("Case Off (word lvl): " & _StringMatchPercent($sStr01, $sStr02, 0, 1) & @CRLF) ; Return "Case Off (word lvl): 75" Func _StringMatchPercent($FirstString = "", $SecondString = "", $iCaseSense = 0, $iMatchByWord = 0) ;~ ($iCaseSense : [0 = not case sensitive [, 1 = case sensitive]]) ;~ $iSplitByWord : [0 = Match Character by Character [, 1 = Match word by Word]] ;~ ### Check/Set function header parameters Local $sMatchBy = ($iMatchByWord = 0) ?

I've just written a small script that compares two strings and returns the similarity of those two in %. I know of StringCompare, but I want to get a percentage and I also want to get in touch with Autoit. Compiling doesn't cause any problems, but actually running it does. In line 20 it has a problem with the index and says "Subscript used on non-accessible variable". What's causing that problem, and how can I solve it? Thanks! And sorry for my ugly style Similarity.au3

This snippet works perfectly for nested spintax: However, I can't figure out how I can write a function that will output all the permutations of nested spintax. For example: for a string "John went to the {{grocery |}store|library}" I would get: John went to the library John went to the store John went to the grocery store ... I can't figure this out - - I can kinda figure it out if there isn't any nesting (regex out all the text between brackets)...but nesting makes it pretty complicated for me to wrap my head around :)

I'd like to take a string like|this and turn it to a 1 key array such as: Array[1] ( [0] => like|this ) There seem to be 2 functions (one internal and the other is an UDF) that are meant for this, but both of which require to supply a delimiter for this to always work. Now of course I can fake a delimiter that I don't expect to exist (like @CRLF). Alternatively, I can use a middleman variable, but it seems like a waste. Is there a more normal (i.e. delimiter and middleman free) way to do it? $foobar = "like|this", $foobar2 = $foobar, $foobar3 = $foobar $foobar = StringSplit($foobar, @CRLF, 3)) ; the delimiter here is a mandatory field ; or include <Array.a3u> $foobar2 = _ArrayFromString($foobar2, @CRLF)) ; the delimiter here is optional but the default "|" will break my string ; or local $foobar_temp[1] = [$foobar3] ; making up a whole new parameter just for this $foobar3 = $foobar_temp

I have this example string: 2020-06-08 09:23:33 : abcdefghifjklm How to trim just the right part? Or how to trim this text right to left? I want to trim this string right to left until ' : '. In ohter words: I need the 'abcdefghifklm' text. I have tried StringTrimRight, but that requires The number of characters to trim. Unfortunately StringSplit trims the left part of the strings.

Hi, I have a string like this : Global $Msga = "urrent directory is /send. (Submission of file with log number 29381077284 is confirmed)"; I want to extract the number 29381077284 from the string. I did StringSplit to split based on "(" and then use space to reach there, But it's not a good choice. Can anyone help me with regular expression to find the number from String using AutoIT. TIA

I understand that a For/Next loop thingy would be used. I just don't know how. Loops are really confusing to me. Thank you all for your guidance and have a happy new year!

I need help turning this string "20180913221626" into a formatted time string. I need to go from this: 20180913221626 to this: 09/13/2018 10:16 PM I do not always know what the date will be so I can not just use a variable I need to actually convert/format. I did see an older post in the forms that was basically the same question only the other guy did not post the working code and I can not figure out how to use _AD_GetObjectProperties properly to get what I want. As always any help would be appreciated. Here is the code I use to find the date, but it always gives me the unformatted version. ;retrieve the items object $oItem = $oOutlook.Session.GetItemFromID($aItems[1][0], Default) $oItem.GetInspector $eSentOn = $oItem.SentOn ; When was the email sent?

Hi, I have the following line in a text file 'input.txt'. I know the line number - say '6'. I wish to replace the text 'WWW' in the below line with a random number (I can generate that with random()). WERIS WWWJP 3.83 8.330 1.000 1097.RAXX The WWW is a 3 digit integer (could be any number between 0 to 999), I can use stringtrimleft and get the numerical value of WWW in this file so, basically, I know the string to replace (ie; WWW stored in a variable), I know the line number to work on and the file location/name and the replacement variable (through random()). My requirement is to fill that 3 spaces with my random number (which Is a integer between 1 and 999) please put ur suggestions

Hello Members of this best Forum i have a question please for example if i have a long string and i want to extract a text between two tag what i can do to make that? note : i know that there is a StringRegExp function it's do that work but it result is be as an array i want the result to be a string is there any function on autoit can do that? Thanks in advance.

Hello! I wrote myself a script to follow Google Maps Polyline encoding steps: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/utilities/polylinealgorithm, and that works (although I think that it's a bit janky), but now I'm having issues getting the output. When I run the script, all the points come out correctly in the console, and even when they're the only things that I log, it displays them fine. However, I'm adding each point into a variable to return all of them at once at the end, fully formatted, and it's only taking the very first point. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, as it seems fine. When run with the default value, it should output this at the end: Custom Polygon: _p~iF~ps|U_ulLnnqC_mqNvxq`@ But instead I'm just getting this: Custom Polygon: _p~iF I know that it's reaching the string combination lines because it's logging the data before it (and even if a put log AFTER the $sPolygon &= $aPoints[0], it's logged fine).

Hi All, I'd like to replace 'COMMA' with ',' for example: $myString = "COMMA" StringRegExpReplace($myString, 'COMMA', ',') Now I've tried escaping the ',' in various ways unsuccessfully, such as: '[,]' "[,]" '\,' [,] seems to work in the pattern, I just can't figure out how to use it in the replace, and it seems everyone online is only interested in removing/replacing commas lol. I also tried creating and using a variable as the replacement but also didn't work: $myComma = "," $myString = "COMMA" StringRegExpReplace($myString, 'COMMA', $myComma) I'm sure it's super simple if someone could point me in the right direction - thanks.

Hello, I am getting this error message when running my script: Case $aButiD[0] To $aButiD[$iTotButtons - 1] Case ^ ERROR Error: Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded. The script's purpose is to read my ini file and create buttons for the sections and section contents. The first part of the script creates buttons for the sections of the ini, once you click on the section button it should open another set of buttons of all the contents under the section In this case, the section in the .ini file is called "TPA" on the Func flavorco() It opens the contents of "TPA" into buttons. Right now, the section it is reading is determined by $sSection. It is only when I try to change $sSection = "TPA" to $sSection = $flavorco that the error starts to appear Here is the script #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <WinAPIFiles.au3> #include <Array.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> $optbar = IniReadSectionNames("test.ini") If Not IsArray($optbar) Then Exit Local $Button[UBound($optbar) - 1] $mGUI = GUICreate('Restock Flavor Ingredients', 10 + (130 * UBound($optbar)), 100) For $x = 1 To UBound($optbar) - 1 $var = IniReadSection("test.ini", $optbar[$x]) If @error Then ContinueLoop $X_Coord = 10 + (($x - 1) * 100) $Button[$x - 1] = GUICtrlCreateButton($optbar[$x], $X_Coord, 30, 70, 30) Next GUISetState() While 1 $mMsg = GUIGetMsg() If $mMsg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then GUIDelete($mGUI) ExitLoop EndIf For $i = 0 To UBound($Button) - 1 If $mMsg = $Button[$i] Then MsgBox(0, '$Msg = ' & $mMsg, GuiCtrlRead($Button[$i]) & ' Pressed', 2) Global $flavorco = $Button ; sets the flavor company's variable Call('flavorco') EndIf Next WEnd Func flavorco() ;opened flavor company's flavors MsgBox(0, '$Msg = ' & $mMsg, GuiCtrlRead($Button[$i]) & $flavorco, 0) Local $sFilePath = @ScriptDir & "\Test.ini" Local $sSection = $Button Local $aArray = IniReadSection($sFilePath, $sSection) _ArrayDelete($aArray, 0) ;_ArrayDisplay($aArray) Local $iIndex Local $iTotButtons = UBound($aArray) Local $iNumPerRow = 5 Local $iButWidth = 100 Local $iButDepth = 30 Local $aButiD[$iTotButtons] Local $hGUI = GUICreate('Ingredients Stock "' & $sFilePath & '"', 10 + ($iButWidth + 10) * $iNumPerRow, _ 10 + Ceiling($iTotButtons / $iNumPerRow) * ($iButDepth + 10), -1, $WS_EX_TOPMOST) For $i = 0 To $iTotButtons - 1 ; $x = $iXBorder + (($iRectWidth + $iSpacing) * Mod($i, $iNumCols)) $x = 10 + (($iButWidth + 10) * Mod($i, $iNumPerRow)) ; $y = $iYBorder + (($iRectDepth + $iSpacing) * Int($i / $iNumCols)) $y = 10 + (($iButDepth + 10) * Int($i / $iNumPerRow)) $aButiD[$i] = GUICtrlCreateButton($aArray[$i][0], $x, $y, $iButWidth, $iButDepth) ;, $BS_NOTIFY) Next GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $msg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE GUIDelete($hGUI) ExitLoop Case $aButiD[0] To $aButiD[$iTotButtons - 1] ;clicking on a flavor name $iIndex = ($msg - $aButiD[0]) $RSINGRflavor = $aArray[$iIndex][0] ;flavor name $RSINGRml = $aArray[$iIndex][1] ; ml $RSINGRgal = $aArray[$iIndex][1]*0.000264172 ;converts ml to gal Call('openflavor') EndSwitch WEnd EndFunc Func openflavor() #Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=F:\Karl\AutoIt\FJ-Stock JP\GUI Forms\RSINGRSUBFORM.kxf ;opens flavor to view stock and restock submit $RSINGRSUBFORM = GUICreate($sSection & " " & $RSINGRflavor, 242, 213, 530, 269) $RSINGRFlavorTitle = GUICtrlCreateLabel($sSection & " " & $RSINGRflavor, 32, 8, 200, 28) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 16, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif") $RSINGRstockcaption = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Current Stock in ml:", 16, 48, 96, 17) $RSINGRstockml = GUICtrlCreateLabel($RSINGRml, 120, 48, 114, 25) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif") $RSINGRInput = GUICtrlCreateInput("ml", 40, 112, 153, 21) $RSINGRSUBMIT = GUICtrlCreateButton("SUBMIT", 16, 152, 81, 33) $RSINGRCLOSE = GUICtrlCreateButton("CLOSE", 145, 151, 81, 33) $RSINGRgalcaption = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Current Stock in gal:", 16, 80, 97, 17) $RSINGRstockgal = GUICtrlCreateLabel($RSINGRGAL, 120, 80, 114, 25) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif") GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) #EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ### ; $msg = "" While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE GUIDelete($RSINGRSUBFORM) ExitLoop Case $RSINGRCLOSE GUIDelete($RSINGRSUBFORM) ExitLoop EndSwitch WEnd EndFunc Any help is much appreciated! Thanks. My guess is that $Button isn't an actual string?? Whenever I use msgbox it shows up the string exactly, no numbers attached. So i'm not sure whats going on here.

Hi, i want to read a particular string from a text file using autoit. i wish to read it without explicitly opening the text file. the copied string should be then transferred to an excelbook (again, no need to explicitly open the excel book)... with reference to my screenshot attached, my input to the 'script'' is going to be 0017-0008, and the script should copy the highlighted two lines from the input file to excel thanks

Hello again, I'm trying to use the FileMove function to rename a bunch of text files. Some of the files have "_1" at the end of their name, for example, "File123_1.txt". I want to remove the "_1" so it would become "File123.txt". What I currently have... FileMove($sSource & "\*_1.txt", $sDestination & "\*.txt") But since I'm using a wildcard, it doesn't appear to be working. I think it's just replacing .txt with .txt. Am I going about this the wrong way? How can I use wildcards and still accomplish this? Any help is greatly appreciated ^__^
