TheDcoder Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) Hello , I am very sad today ... I (half) made a complicated function which already exists in AutoIt... I call it CalcStringExp (Calculates math expression which are enclosed in strings [or which are in a string variant]) which is a clone of Execute. Here is the source code if you wish to see it (its not fully complete): Reveal hidden contents expandcollapse popupMsgBox(0, 0, CalcStringExp('$VAR1 + $VAR2', '$VAR1 = 1, $VAR2 = 2')) Func CalcStringExp($sStringExp, $sVariables) $sVariables = StringStripWS($sVariables, 8) ; Remove any spaces $sStringExp = StringStripWS($sStringExp, 8) ; Remove any spaces $bSolved = False If $sVariables = "" Then Local $aVariables[1] = [0] Else $aVariables = StringSplit($sVariables, ',') EndIf For $i = 1 To $aVariables[0] $aTempArray = StringSplit($aVariables[$i], '=') $sStringExp = StringReplace($sStringExp, $aTempArray[1], $aTempArray[2], 0, 2) Next $sOperatersPresent = "" If Not StringInStr($sStringExp, '^', 2) = 0 Then $sOperatersPresent &= '^' If Not StringInStr($sStringExp, '*', 2) = 0 Then $sOperatersPresent &= '*' If Not StringInStr($sStringExp, '/', 2) = 0 Then $sOperatersPresent &= '/' If Not StringInStr($sStringExp, '+', 2) = 0 Then $sOperatersPresent &= '+' If Not StringInStr($sStringExp, '-', 2) = 0 Then $sOperatersPresent &= '-' If $sOperatersPresent = "" Then $bSolved = True $sTempString = $sStringExp While $bSolved = False $sNum1 = Number($sTempString) $iTempStringLen = StringLen($iNum1) $sTempString = StringTrimLeft($sTempString, $iTempStringLen) $sOperator = StringLeft($sTempString, 1) $sTempString = StringTrimLeft($sTempString, 1) If $sOperator = "" Or $iNum1 = 0 Or $iNum2 = 0 Then $bSolved = True $sStringExp = $sTempString EndIf Switch WEnd Return $sStringExp EndFunc Lesson Learnt: Always search the help file as many times as possible before committing to anything! (like asking a question or making a function) TD P.S This thread was lost in yesterday's upgrade, so I re-posted it (that mean today = yesterday!)

guinness Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Still room for improvement by the looks of things.

Guest Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I don't thing that you wasted your time.I also made few functions which already exist in Autoit such as Array2DSearch but I know that even if I didn't have to develop these functions, it is still not wasted time because that's how you develop "programing thinking" ability. If you will keep doing it a lot then you may come to a state that when it is about simple functions - it is faster to develop then then find then in the help file.If you will only based on the help file (In a way that you don't create new functions) then this is bad thing. But I see that this sentence is unnecessary for you because you know it.
James Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Also, no, you didn't waste your time.It's good practise to re-implement a function without looking at the source. You may come up with a better implementation. czardas 1 Blog - Seriously epic web hosting - Twitter - GitHub - Cachet HQ
