Length then proceeds from this position to the right, toward the end of the string. Specifies that First_Character should be counted from the end of the string rather than the beginning. If Length is not supplied, STRMID extracts all characters from the specified start position to the end of the string. If there are not enough characters left in the main string to obtain Length characters, the substring is truncated. The starting position within Expression at which the substring starts. If this argument is not a string, it is converted using IDL's default formatting rules. The expression from which the substrings are to be extracted. If it is greater than 1, the result will have an additional dimension, with the new first dimension having the same size as the stride.
If First_Character or Length do not contain enough elements to process Expression, STRMID automatically loops back to the beginning as necessary.If both are arrays, they must have the same stride.If First_Character or Length is an array, the size of their first dimension determines how many substrings are extracted from each element of Expression.The result has the same structure and number of elements as Expression. If a scalar value is supplied for First_Character and Length, then those values are applied to all elements of Expression.Either argument can be a scalar or an array: The form of First_Character and Length control how they are applied to Expression. The result of the function is a string of Length characters taken from Expression, starting at character position First_Character. Result = STRMID( Expression, First_Character , /REVERSE_OFFSET ) Return Value The string we want to remove is highlighted in yellow: myQuote = "It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves." extractedStr = STRMID(myQuote, 29, 12, /REVERSE_OFFSET) PRINT, extractedStr Remember that the first character in the original string is at position zero (0): myString = "IDL is fun" subString = STRMID(myString, 4, 2) PRINT, subStringĮxtract a substring from the end of a string (quote from William Shakespeare). ExamplesĮxtract a substring, in this case: “is”, from a longer string and store it in another variable. Each extracted string is the result of removing characters from the input string. The STRMID function extracts one or more substrings from a string expression.
Tip: See also the IDL_String::CharAt, IDL_String::Remove, and IDL_String::Substring methods, which provide similar functionality but with an object-oriented interface.
