Join Command

Purpose

Returns a string created by joining a number of substrings contained in a hash (array).

Syntax

Join strvar = hashvar[], delimiter

Description

With Join all elements of a Hash String are joined together, separated with delimiter.

Delimiter is the string (character) used to separate the substrings in the returned string. If delimiter is a zero-length string, all items in the list are concatenated with no delimiters.

Example

Dim h As Hash String

Dim s$ = "name,vor,str,12,,Köln,,Fax:0111-123467"

Split h[] = s$, ","

Clr s$

Join s$ = h[], ","

Print s$

This is the same as

Dim h As Hash String

Dim s$ = "name,vor,str,12,,Köln,,Fax:0111-123467"

Split h[] = s$, ","

Clr s$

Dim i%

s$ = ""

For i% = 1 To h[%]

s$ = s$ + h[% i]

If i != h[%] s$ = s$ + ","

Next

Print s$
