  • 1.  Issues extracting text within a string

    Employee
    Posted 11-30-2017 09:00

    Hi,

    I'm currently working on a project whereby one test I have to do involves extracting text from within a string. Using python or BrainScript I am noticing that commands such as "left", "right" and "substr" are not going purple in the new "Transform" node, but will in the superseded node. I get the following error:

    NameError: name 'left' is not defined Error executing "ProcessRecords" at line "15"

    when using the code:

    out1.IAG_Test1_Step3 = left(out1.IAG_Test1_Step1,3)

     

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Alex

    python uses the syntax

    out1.IAG_Test1_Step3 = out1.IAG_Test1_Step1[:3]

    Hi, 

    Thanks for your quick response. I'm now encountering:

    no viable alternative at input ';' Error in "ProcessRecords" at line "6", column "44" in text: out1.IAG_Test1_Step3 = out1.IAG_Test1_Step1[;3]

    The 3 does go green though so it seems like it's working? Test1_Step1 is a string field too.

    Thanks,

    Alex

    My bad.. it was supposed to be a colon, not a semicolon. I've corrected it above
