I have a text string that contains text within two brackets. e.g. "testdata[3]" "testdata[-4]", "testdata[-4g]",
I wish to "extract" the string enclosed in brackets? What is a good way to do this? e.g. fun(testdata[3]) = '3' fun(testdata[-4g]) = '-4g' --------------------------------- Moody friends.
