Built-in string class.
|
|
</brief_description>
|
|
<description>
|
|
This is the built-in string class (and the one used by GDScript). It supports Unicode and provides all necessary means for string handling. Strings are reference-counted and use a copy-on-write approach, so passing them around is cheap in resources.

<method name="capitalize" qualifiers="const">

<return type="String" />
|
|
<description>
|
|

For [code]capitalize camelCase mixed_with_underscores[/code], it will return [code]Capitalize Camel Case Mixed With Underscores[/code].

|
<return type="int" />

<argument index="0" name="to" type="String" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
Performs a case-sensitive comparison to another string. Returns [code]-1[/code] if less than, [code]1[/code] if greater than, or [code]0[/code] if equal. "less than" or "greater than" are determined by the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters]Unicode code points[/url] of each string, which roughly matches the alphabetical order.
|
|
[b]Behavior with different string lengths:[/b] Returns [code]1[/code] if the "base" string is longer than the [code]to[/code] string or [code]-1[/code] if the "base" string is shorter than the [code]to[/code] string. Keep in mind this length is determined by the number of Unicode codepoints, [i]not[/i] the actual visible characters.
|
|
[b]Behavior with empty strings:[/b] Returns [code]-1[/code] if the "base" string is empty, [code]1[/code] if the [code]to[/code] string is empty or [code]0[/code] if both strings are empty.
|
|
To get a boolean result from a string comparison, use the [code]==[/code] operator instead. See also [method nocasecmp_to] and [method naturalnocasecmp_to].

[gdscript]
|
|
print("i" in "team") # Will print `false`.
|
|

When used for sorting, natural order comparison will order suites of numbers as expected by most people. If you sort the numbers from 1 to 10 using natural order, you will get [code][1, 2, 3, ...][/code] instead of [code][1, 10, 2, 3, ...][/code].

|
[b]Behavior with different string lengths:[/b] Returns [code]1[/code] if the "base" string is longer than the [code]to[/code] string or [code]-1[/code] if the "base" string is shorter than the [code]to[/code] string. Keep in mind this length is determined by the number of Unicode codepoints, [i]not[/i] the actual visible characters.
|
|
[b]Behavior with empty strings:[/b] Returns [code]-1[/code] if the "base" string is empty, [code]1[/code] if the [code]to[/code] string is empty or [code]0[/code] if both strings are empty.
|
|
To get a boolean result from a string comparison, use the [code]==[/code] operator instead. See also [method nocasecmp_to] and [method casecmp_to].

|
Performs a case-insensitive comparison to another string. Returns [code]-1[/code] if less than, [code]1[/code] if greater than, or [code]0[/code] if equal. "less than" or "greater than" are determined by the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters]Unicode code points[/url] of each string, which roughly matches the alphabetical order. Internally, lowercase characters will be converted to uppercase during the comparison.

<description>
|
|
Converts a [float] to a string representation of a decimal number.
|
|
The number of decimal places can be specified with [code]decimals[/code]. If [code]decimals[/code] is [code]-1[/code] (default), decimal places will be automatically adjusted so that the string representation has 14 significant digits (counting both digits to the left and the right of the decimal point).
|
|
Trailing zeros are not included in the string. The last digit will be rounded and not truncated.
|
|
Some examples:
|
|
[codeblock]
|
|
String.num(3.141593) # "3.141593"
|
|
String.num(3.141593, 3) # "3.142"
|
|
String.num(3.14159300) # "3.141593", no trailing zeros.
|
|
# Last digit will be rounded up here, which reduces total digit count since
|
|
# trailing zeros are removed:
|
|
String.num(42.129999, 5) # "42.13"
|
|
# If `decimals` is not specified, the total amount of significant digits is 14:
|
|
String.num(-0.0000012345432123454321) # "-0.00000123454321"
|
|
String.num(-10000.0000012345432123454321) # "-10000.0000012345"

<description>
|
|
Splits the string by a [code]delimiter[/code] string and returns an array of the substrings, starting from right.
|
|
The splits in the returned array are sorted in the same order as the original string, from left to right.
|
|
If [code]maxsplit[/code] is specified, it defines the number of splits to do from the right up to [code]maxsplit[/code]. The default value of 0 means that all items are split, thus giving the same result as [method split].
|
|
Example:
|
|
[codeblocks]
|
|
[gdscript]
|
|
var some_string = "One,Two,Three,Four"
|
|
var some_array = some_string.rsplit(",", true, 1)
|
|
print(some_array.size()) # Prints 2
|
|
print(some_array[0]) # Prints "Four"
|
|
print(some_array[1]) # Prints "Three,Two,One"

<description>
|
|
Splits the string by a [code]delimiter[/code] string and returns an array of the substrings. The [code]delimiter[/code] can be of any length.
|
|
If [code]maxsplit[/code] is specified, it defines the number of splits to do from the left up to [code]maxsplit[/code]. The default value of [code]0[/code] means that all items are split.
|
|
If you need only one element from the array at a specific index, [method get_slice] is a more performant option.
|
|
Example:
|
|
[codeblocks]
|
|
[gdscript]
|
|
var some_string = "One,Two,Three,Four"
|
|
var some_array = some_string.split(",", true, 1)
|
|
print(some_array.size()) # Prints 2
|
|
print(some_array[0]) # Prints "Four"
|
|
print(some_array[1]) # Prints "Three,Two,One"
|
|
[/gdscript]
|
|
[csharp]
|
|
var someString = "One,Two,Three,Four";
|
|
var someArray = someString.Split(",", true); // This is as close as it gets to Godots API.
|
|
GD.Print(someArray[0]); // Prints "Four"
|
|
GD.Print(someArray[1]); // Prints "Three,Two,One"
|
|
