Hi Steve,
Can you tell what basic string functions are available in links?
is a string seen as a list of characters in links? if that is the case
i need to make a list of lists as the final output.
so are the list functions operable on strings??
regards
ravi

I created my own string splitting function by using a recursive function.
It is possible to do and should be a nice programming task :)
If you have any more specific questions feel free to ask.

Hi,
I get a string like "((fred) and (barney)) or (fred)". I need
to split this into individual words
"fred","and","barney","or","fred2 . I was not able to make
out how to go about in links. Any functions to do such string
splitting?
thanks and regards

Links has a few functions that operate on lists
which you might find
useful in implementing your own function that
returns a boolean value for
whether a particular element exists. I would
suggest looking at the
search() and isJust() functions on this page:

Hi,
I am trying to implement the duplicate
removal for a list.
I want to check if the head of list is
contained in the tail
of the list.
So i need a function which returns a
boolean value suggesting
whether tail contains the head or not. Is
there any function
to see if the given element is contained in
a list?
Thanks and Regards

Nope, I don't think we have those.
Looks like
another fun programming task for you!
