strsubst

substitute a character string by another in a character string

Syntax

string_out = strsubst(string_in, searchStr, replaceStr)
string_out = strsubst(string_in, searchStr, replaceStr, "regexp")

Arguments

string_in

a matrix of character strings. The strings where to search occurrences of searchStr.

searchStr

a character string. The string to search in string_in.

replaceStr

Then searchStr is used as a regular expression.

Description

strsubst('SCI/demos/scicos','/',' ')
strsubst('2' ,'/2(]*)?$\1/' ,'0','r')
