VBA: Parse preceding numbers from string -


i need parse 2 substrings string starts numeric text followed alpha-numeric text. strings can vary bit, not much. below examples of incoming format , strings need:

"00 10 50 information bidders"   ==> "00 10 50", "information bidders" "001050 information bidders"     ==> "001050", "information bidders"     "00 10 50 - information bidders" ==> "00 10 50", "information bidders" "001050 -- information bidders"  ==> "001050", "information bidders"

i hoping half dozen lines of vba, code turning loop i'm testing every character in string see changeover numeric-only non-numeric, parsing string based on changeover location. not big deal, messier hoping for. there vba functions eliminate need iterate through each string character?

well, question poor, don't state if want done in word, excel etc...

i've assumed excel. so, either want, or give start! reads value in column , spits results out column b.

sub formatmeplease()  dim row integer row = 1  while (true)      if range("a" & row).value = ""         exit     end if      dim originalvalue string     originalvalue = range("a" & row).value     originalvalue = replace(originalvalue, chr(34), "") 'chr(34) double quote     originalvalue = replace(originalvalue, "-", "") 'be gone oh evil dash     originalvalue = replace(originalvalue, "  ", " ") 'double white space? never! single white space more enough      dim result string      result = chr(34)     = 1 len(originalvalue)      dim currentcharacter string     currentcharacter = mid(originalvalue, i, 1)      if (isnumeric(currentcharacter) or currentcharacter = " ")         result = result + currentcharacter     else         result = left(result, - 1)         result = result & chr(34) & ", " & chr(34)         result = result & mid(originalvalue, i)         exit                 end if      next      result = result & chr(34)      range("b" & row).value = result      row = row + 1  loop  end sub

commonjs - How to write a typescript definition file for a node module that exports a function? -

consider, toml node module can use: // toml.d.ts declare module toml { export function parse(value:string):any; } declare module "toml" { export = toml; } then: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/toml/toml.d.ts"/> import toml = require('toml'); toml.parse(...); however, node module export single function, such 'glob' ( https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob ). the node usage of module be: var glob = require("glob") glob("*.js", {}, callback(err, files) { ... }); you'd naively expect this: // glob.d.ts declare function globs(paths:string, options:any, callback:{(err:any, files:string[]):void; ...but because typescripts 'import' semantics bit strange, seems can use 'import .. = require()' statement alias modules . trying call: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/glob/glob.d.ts"/> import blog = require('glob'); results in: error ts2072: mod

thorough guide for profiling racket code -

did googling ("racket profiling", "racket measure performance"), didn't find , there no examples in docs. did google "profile" search on htdp - no luck. (profile (f ...)) output isn't obvious other small snippets. ideally want python's python -m cprofile usage examples. when search "python profiling", both duckduckgo , google give top result: 26.4. python profilers . (although scanned quickly, seems more of reference "thorough usage guide" examples. if had else in mind, perhaps please link that?) the equivalent racket documentation be: profile: statistical profiler . a usage example: #lang racket (require profile) (profile-thunk (thunk (function-to-profile arg0 arg1) )) here (thunk e) convenience (lambda () e) . bigger example: #lang racket (module mod racket (provide f) (define (f) (for/list ([i 10000]) i))) (require (prefix-in mod: 'mod)) (define (f) (for ([i 10000
