hi Guys,

can you please help me with this:

mydata:string
(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)

What script should I use in filter node if I want to output the 4th character, which is "4" in this case ?? (Comma is delimiter and the search should not show this as a character). Tried using sub String operation but its finding Comma...

Thanks
GK

Myself, I would use this:

x="(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)" # put the text in a string
s=x.replace("(","").replace(")","") #remove parenthesis
t=s.split(",") # split by commas
emit t[3] as MyValue #lists start indexing at 0 - [3] is the 4th element
