Find a character in a string

[wiebe@CARYA]

The Equal? function only returns true if the entire string matches.

Use a match pattern, a match regular expression, or a split string. Split String is probably the fastest, but it's also less flexible. It will return -1 if no P is found, an it's index if it is found.

And if I put in a for loop? Because with the first thing I have done I am comparing with the letter "P" only the first string of the array.

I mean something like this

If each array element is just one letter, you shouldn't use the index array.

Simply compare the array with the letter, and you'll get an array of Booleans.

Hi 99,

why did you again start a new thread for the very same problem?

Searching for A, B, or P doesn't make a big difference…

Have you read (and understand) the message on using an autoindexing FOR loop?

I got it| thank you so much!!

Best regards

Yes, I got it

Thank you!

Compare the P to the array.  You'll get an array of booleans.  Do OR Array Elements which will give you a True if one or more of the elements in the Array is a "P".

Have you taken the LabVIEW tutorials yet?

Do you have any prior programming experience before LabVIEW?

EDIT:  Sorry, I didn't see this had already been answered.  Just more confusion because of multiple basic questions scattered among numerous threads.
