Zero-width split() match creates empty trailing strings but not empty leading stringsThe perlfunc documentation spells this out clearly, and it matches what I see:
$ perl -e 'for (split(//, "fob", -1)) { print "$_\n"; }' | sed -e
's/^$/<blank>/'
f
o
b
<blank>
The question on my mind is why. In particular, is it a decision worth
replicating to language's libraries?
Thanks for any pointers. I tried to find the source for split, and I
think I may have found it in pp_split in pp.c. But there's not really
any reason to expect the source code to include the justification, and
I couldn't find one.

How to pad string with leading zeroes*** please ignore the post entitled 'Brian'. Its a duplicate of
*** this post without a matching title
Hi,
I have a requirement to convert a 3-digit integer to a 3 character string
padded with leading zeroes as I SELECT it from the database.
Examples:
=========
1 converts to '001'
21 converts to '021'
321 converts to '321'
I have played with several string functions to no avail. Any
help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Brian
Two possible ways to get you going:
select substring(convert(char(4),column + 1000),2,3)
OR

Converting numeric value to string with leading zeroesHi,
We have a smallint column on a table in which we store ISO country numeric
codes. These values range in length from 1 to 3 (when stored as smallint).
However we now have a requirement that we output them to a flat file they
must be of length 3 with leading zeroes if required e.g. 76 must be '076'.
Obviously I could just do a few IF statements with DATALENGTH and STR but I
was wondering if someone has a nice tidy way if doing it.

Autocomplete dropping leading zeros from results string array
Hi all,
I am using the autocomplete control to retrieve values from a DB. When i do a search on a string beginning with a 0 the 0 is dropped from the results shown on screen. I have debugged the GetCompletionList method and the returning string array definetly has the leading zero's. As far as i can tell it only happens with the 0 character.
Any one have any ideas?
Cheers,P.S. I am using .net 2.0 with ajax extensions 1.0

GridView & FormView dropping leading zeros from numbers set as strings
I'm storing in a SQL database a certain field (an employee number) as a varchar data type. Throughout the app (datasource, update/insert stored procedures, etc.) I'm working with it as a string. I've even ensured that it's being used as a string "behind the scenes" by watching it in SQL Profiler.
Problem is, the GridView & FormView that display it always drop any leading zeros. Wierder yet, when I put the GridView in Edit mode & add a zero, it saves to the database with the zero, but the leading zero doesn't display in the GridView!

Leading zeros
How can you place leading zeros on an integer before converting to string?
You can't add leading 0's to the integer but why not do.....
MyString = "00000" & str(MyInt)
Mat
Please try the following
varStr = string.Format("{0:000000000}",varNum);

Leading zeros?
I need help with leading zeros within the presentation layer of asp.net. I'm pulling a number from a sql database and display it on a textbox. I want that number to have leading zeros.
Example: 149
I want that to be like 00149 or 1234 to be like 01234.
I tried several examples provided within some of the previous threads but no luck. Example I use this one:
varNum = String.Format("{0:00000}", varStr)
Please advise.
try something like this :
Dim i As Integer, j As String, k As String, val as string
i = 123
k = "00000"

Hi,
If I understand your requirement correctly, this should do it
Dim Items() As String = {"A", "B", "C"}
Dim Other(Items.Length - 1) As String
Items.CopyTo(Other, 0)
To more closely match you code above, but this will be less efficient
Dim Items(), Other() As String

String and String[]What will be the advantage of using

over

"String[10]" is a fixed-length, statically allocated, Ansi-based ShortString.
"String" is a dynamic-length, dynamically allocated, reference counted, Ansi-based
or Unicode-based (depening on Delphi version) Long string.
Unless you absolutely need the static, fixed length nature of ShortString,
such as in records that interact with external systems, you should stay ...
