What is the splice() method in Euphoria?
In Euphoria, the splice() method is a built-in subroutine used to perform certain operations on a sequence.
This method will bridge a sequence at a particular indicated position, and insert specified data at the position of the bridge.
The illustration above shows how the splice method introduces a new set of data at the position 2 of the sequence.
Syntax
splice(whatToSplice, spliceWith,splicePosition)
Parameters
whatToSplice: This represents the sequence which will be spliced.spliceWith: This represents the data, which will be added to the sequence.splicePosition: This represents the index of the sequence from which the splicing will start.
Return value
It returns a sequence with a length equal to that of whatToSplice, and the length of spliceWith joined together.
Code
--define an objectobject result--define a sequencesequence splicingsplicing = "My is john"--invoking the splice function.result = splice( splicing," name",3)printf(1,result)
Explanation
- Line 3: We use an object,
result, to save the result of performing aspliceon the variablesplicing. - Line 10: We add the
namestring tosplicingon the third spot in the sequence. - Line 11: We print the output of the
spliceoperation.
