Hey all,

i am looking for an easy way to split a string into letters and numbers.
so if i had a string '34JKBY103' i could get ['34', 'JKBY', '103']

I could write up something, but thought that if there was already something
out there that i hav'nt found, it would probably be cleaner.
thanks

sk

Thanks to all of you for responding... Darkness seems to be the
consensus... so that is what I ordered.

irb> '34JKBY103'.scan(/\d+|\D+/)
=> ["34", "JKBY", "103"]

that looks like an easy way ;-)

I don't know if there's anything out there now (there might be), but it
seems pretty simple. Just split on either \d+ or \D+, depending
(unless I'm missing something in your requirement)?

Someone posted this already, but:

irb(main):010:0> s = "34JKBY103"
=> "34JKBY103"
irb(main):011:0> s.scan(/\d+|\D+/)
=> ["34", "JKBY", "103"]
irb(main):012:0>

Also, remember, there are several ways to do this. You can use an
actual split() function with a regular expression.
