= String Parsing Functions =

The following block of code is a set of String Parsing Functions arranged by Apjjm. Note: These functions will be set out best using the [http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/resources/improvnotepad Improved Notepad++ HPS Support].

These functions allow the user to convert a string either to an array of integers, an array of floats, or a single unsigned integer. There is full support for exponents, decimals and signs.

'''Download the code ''' '''[http://pastebin.com/DrWswVXR here] ''' '''.'''

Installation requires pasting the code either into your .hps file or an external file and utilising a [http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/resources/preprocess Script Pre-Processer].

== Documentation ==

<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
float[] parseStringToFloatArray(string &in asString)
</syntaxhighlight>Parses all floats out of a given string (The start of a new float is assumed when a non-numeric or unexpected character appears). Signed decimals (.) and exponents (E) are supported.

<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
int[] parseStringToIntArray(string &in asString)
</syntaxhighlight>Parses all integers out of a given string (decimals are treated as an unexpected character, however a signs and an exponent (E) is supported).

<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
uint parseStringUInt(string &in asString)
</syntaxhighlight>Ignores all non-digit characters when parsing the string to construct a single unsigned integer. E.g. "123ab45" would return 12345, as would "12.3e-45". This is much faster than the other two parsing routines.
