linereadstring() function problem

tyanata

 Hello,

I have such problem in my SKILL code. In one of the routines of it I create list of strings. And after that read them one by one and transform to symbols with the linereadstring()  function.

 

I have such a proble for example:

llinereadstring("x") 

returns  ->(x)

 

llinereadstring("X") 

returns  ->(X)

 

llinereadstring("9") 

returns  ->(9)

 

llinereadstring("X9") 

returns  ->(X9)

 

llinereadstring("9X") 

returns  ->

SYNTAX ERROR found at line 1 column 2 of file *string*
*Error* lineread/read: syntax error encountered in input

 

My question is how can I overcome this problem if some of the strings in the list is starting with digit and ends with letter as "9X" in the example above.

 

Best regards,

 

tyanata

    tyanata,

    linereadstring() is really intended for parsing things that look like SKILL, and "9X" doesn't...

    So if it's a list of whitespace separated strings you want, you could use parseString() to convert to a list, and concat or stringToSymbol to convert them to symbols. For example:

    str="X9"
    mapcar('concat parseString(str))

    Regards,

    Andrew.
