RE: RE: Re: 30 Spaces- 1 question

Actually, I had rather taken it as gospel that the string was more than 30 chunks. =) good spot on that.

I still hate throwing the regex engine at this problem tho. Maybe I'll Benchmark em all and post that. Make me feel better for being a goof.

I wouldn't have posted if it was just the problem with your split solution, because it's highly minor and can be easily fixed. I was more concerned with the REx one because it always leaves off the last chunk in the string unless the string ends in whitespace. I would definitely be interested in seeing a Benchmark of this. Keep in mind, though, that split uses the REx engine just as much as m/// or s///. -dlc	[reply]
