I want a function to check if a string is of format x.xx.xxxx in javascript. For example, s.xf.ssfs should return true. And sx.xf.hsdf should return false. Also s.fsd.sfdf should return false.
Here's a reducer version
const isValid = s => s.split('.').reduce((b,a,i) => a.length === [1,2,4][i] ? b+1 : b, 0) === 3
console.log(isValid('s.xf.ssfs'));
console.log(isValid('ds.xf.ssfs'));
console.log(isValid('5.32.9850'))
For a non-regex, for loop option:
const test1 = 's.xf.ssfs';
const test2 = 'sx.xf.hsdf';
function correctFormat(str) {
if (str.length !== 9) {
return false;
}
if (str[1] !== '.' || str[4] !== '.') {
return false;
}
for (let i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
if (i !== 1 && i !== 4 && str[i] === '.') {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
console.log(correctFormat(test1));
console.log(correctFormat(test2));
You can try using regex:
const regex = new RegExp('[a-z][.][a-z]{2}[.][a-z]{4}');
console.log(regex.test('s.xf.ssfs'));
console.log(regex.test('s.fsd.sfdf'));
As an alternative you can also split the string by periods and check the length of each individual item:
function check(s){
let a = s.split('.');
return a.length == 3 && a[0].length == 1 && a[1].length == 2 && a[2].length == 4;
}
console.log(check('s.xf.ssfs'));
console.log(check('sx.xf.hsdf'));
Regular Expressions are what you are looking for here. Simply define a regex and use the test() method to evaluate a string. For example:
const regex = /^[a-z][.][a-z]{2}[.][a-z]{4}$/
console.log(regex.test('s.xf.ssfs'))
console.log(regex.test('sx.xf.hsdf'))
If you require to accept letters and numbers you could use this regular expression instead to test against:
const regex = /^.[.].{2}[.].{4}$/
console.log(regex.test('s.5f.s9fs'))
console.log(regex.test('sx.xf.hsdf'))
From a brute force approach you could split the string by . into an array and check the length of the array, and each element within the array as follows:
let myArray = myString.split(".");
if(myArray.length !== 3){
return false
}
else if(myArray[0] !== 1 || myArray[1] !== 2 || myArray[3] != 4){
return false
}
else{return true}
Using regular expression you can achieve it.
1) This example work for letters from "a" to "z"
const format = /^[a-z]\.[a-z]{2}\.[a-z]{4}$/; //x.xx.xxxx
let test1 = format.test('s.xf.ssfs');
let test2 = format.test('sx.xf.hsdf');
console.log("test1: " + test1);
console.log("test2: " + test2);
2) This example work for letters from "a" to "z" and "A" to "Z"
const format = /^[a-zA-Z]\.[a-zA-Z]{2}\.[a-zA-Z]{4}$/; //X.Xx.xXXx
let test1 = format.test('S.Xf.sSFs');
let test2 = format.test('sx.XF.Hsdf');
console.log("test1: " + test1);
console.log("test2: " + test2);
I want to loop through an array and check if each element is a number OR a string that could potentially turned into a number (e.g. "42"). If it can be "converted" then the element should be stored in a new array.
This is my code where I push all converted elements into a new array. Notice: I also want to count how many elements were "converted" from a string into a number and how many were not.
function numberConverter(arr) {
var converted = []
var counterConverted = 0
var counterNotConverted = 0
for (var c of arr) {
if (typeof c == "string" && Number(c) == "number") {
counterConverted++;
parseInt(c, 10);
converted.push(c)
} else {
counterNotConverted++
}
}
if (counterConverted == 0) {
return "no need for conversion"
} else {
return counterConverted + " were converted to numbers: " + converted + "; " + counterNotConverted + " couldn't be converted"
}
}
I know that my if condition
if(typeof c == "string" && Number(c) == "number")
is flawed logically, but I can't make up why.
Thanks for any hints and please explain it in beginner terms.
You can test if a string could be converted to a number like so:
val !== "" && Number.isNaN(Number(val)) === false
And the code could be written like so:
function numberConverter(arr) {
var converted = [];
var notconverted = [];
arr.forEach(function(val) {
if (typeof val === "number") {
converted.push(val);
} else if (typeof val === "string" && val !== "" && Number.isNaN(Number(val)) === false) {
converted.push(Number(val));
} else {
notconverted.push(val);
}
});
console.log("converted", converted);
console.log("not converted", notconverted);
}
numberConverter([0, "1", "", "123-foo", undefined, null, true, [], {}]);
The best solution is to use a functional approach to the code rather than an imperative one.
let arrayNumbers = ["Vadim", 99, {}, [], "100", "55AA", "AA55", Infinity, "false", true, null, -65.535, 2E1, "2E2"].filter( value => value !== null && value != Infinity && value !== '' && !isNaN(Number(value)) && !['boolean','array','object'].includes(typeof value)).map(value => +value);
console.log('Was Converted to Numbers:', arrayNumbers);
You need to check typeof string and isNaN in ESLint way (Number.isNaN(Number())).
function numberConverter(arr) {
const converted = [];
let counterConverted = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i += 1) {
const str = arr[i];
if (str && typeof str === 'string' && !Number.isNaN(Number(str))) {
const number = parseInt(str, 10);
converted.push(number);
counterConverted += 1;
}
}
const counterNotConverted = arr.length - converted.length;
if (counterConverted === 0) {
return 'No need for conversion.';
}
return `${counterConverted} were converted to numbers: ${converted.join(',')}; ${counterNotConverted} couldn't be converted`;
}
console.log(`'${numberConverter(['id', null, {}])}'`); // No need for conversion.
console.log(`'${numberConverter(['1', '-1', 'val'])}'`); // 2 were converted to numbers: [1,-1]; 1 couldn't be converted
console.log(`'${numberConverter(['1', '-1', '0', '1.5', 'val'])}'`); // 4 were converted to numbers: [1,-1,0,1]; 1 couldn't be converted
can you help me to write a function in javascript to Given two strings, find if they are one edit away from each other example :
(pale, ple ) true
(pales, pale ) true
(pale, bale ) true
(pale, bake) false
(face, facts ) false
Can you try this function to check that string only differs by one edit.
function checkDifferntString(str1, str2) {
let diff = 0;
if (str1 === str2) return true; // equal return true
let lengthDiff = Math.abs(str1.length - str2.length)
if (lengthDiff > 1) return false; // checks length diff if > 2 return false
for (let i=0; (i<str1.length || i < str2.length);i++) {
if (diff > 1) return false; // diff greater than 1 return false
if (str1.charAt(i) !== str2.charAt(i)) diff++
}
if (diff <= 1) return true
else return false;
}
console.log(checkDifferntString("pale", "pale")) // true
console.log(checkDifferntString("pale", "pales")) // true
console.log(checkDifferntString("pales", "pale")) // true
console.log(checkDifferntString("pales", "bale")) // false
I hope it helps. Thanks!
Check this out.
I made a simple function that iterates through the given two strings and check if there's more than 1 difference (in terms of characters) between these strings, an optional argument cs to allow case sensitivity, by default it equals to false, so 'a' and 'A' are the same.
function isEditFrom(str1, str2, cs) {
var cs = cs || false, i = 0, diff = 2, len1 = str1.length, len2 = str2.length, l = (len1 > len2) ? len1: len2;
if(len1 !== 0 && len2 !== 0) {
if(cs === false) {
str1 = str1.toLowerCase();
str2 = str2.toLowerCase();
}
for(; i < l; i++) {
if(str1[i] !== str2[i]) {
if(--diff === 0) {
return false;
}
}
}
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
and now we call that function:
isEditFrom('Pale', 'bAle'); // returns True
isEditFrom('Pale', 'bAle', true); // returns False as we set the third argument to true enabling case sensitivity, 'a' != 'A'
isEditFrom('face', 'facts'); // returns False
Where could I find some JavaScript code to parse CSV data?
You can use the CSVToArray() function mentioned in this blog entry.
<script type="text/javascript">
// ref: http://stackoverflow.com/a/1293163/2343
// This will parse a delimited string into an array of
// arrays. The default delimiter is the comma, but this
// can be overriden in the second argument.
function CSVToArray( strData, strDelimiter ){
// Check to see if the delimiter is defined. If not,
// then default to comma.
strDelimiter = (strDelimiter || ",");
// Create a regular expression to parse the CSV values.
var objPattern = new RegExp(
(
// Delimiters.
"(\\" + strDelimiter + "|\\r?\\n|\\r|^)" +
// Quoted fields.
"(?:\"([^\"]*(?:\"\"[^\"]*)*)\"|" +
// Standard fields.
"([^\"\\" + strDelimiter + "\\r\\n]*))"
),
"gi"
);
// Create an array to hold our data. Give the array
// a default empty first row.
var arrData = [[]];
// Create an array to hold our individual pattern
// matching groups.
var arrMatches = null;
// Keep looping over the regular expression matches
// until we can no longer find a match.
while (arrMatches = objPattern.exec( strData )){
// Get the delimiter that was found.
var strMatchedDelimiter = arrMatches[ 1 ];
// Check to see if the given delimiter has a length
// (is not the start of string) and if it matches
// field delimiter. If id does not, then we know
// that this delimiter is a row delimiter.
if (
strMatchedDelimiter.length &&
strMatchedDelimiter !== strDelimiter
){
// Since we have reached a new row of data,
// add an empty row to our data array.
arrData.push( [] );
}
var strMatchedValue;
// Now that we have our delimiter out of the way,
// let's check to see which kind of value we
// captured (quoted or unquoted).
if (arrMatches[ 2 ]){
// We found a quoted value. When we capture
// this value, unescape any double quotes.
strMatchedValue = arrMatches[ 2 ].replace(
new RegExp( "\"\"", "g" ),
"\""
);
} else {
// We found a non-quoted value.
strMatchedValue = arrMatches[ 3 ];
}
// Now that we have our value string, let's add
// it to the data array.
arrData[ arrData.length - 1 ].push( strMatchedValue );
}
// Return the parsed data.
return( arrData );
}

jQuery-CSV
It's a jQuery plugin designed to work as an end-to-end solution for parsing CSV into JavaScript data. It handles every single edge case presented in RFC 4180, as well as some that pop up for Excel/Google spreadsheet exports (i.e., mostly involving null values) that the specification is missing.
Example:
track,artist,album,year
Dangerous,'Busta Rhymes','When Disaster Strikes',1997
// Calling this
music = $.csv.toArrays(csv)
// Outputs...
[
["track", "artist", "album", "year"],
["Dangerous", "Busta Rhymes", "When Disaster Strikes", "1997"]
]
console.log(music[1][2]) // Outputs: 'When Disaster Strikes'
Update:
Oh yeah, I should also probably mention that it's completely configurable.
music = $.csv.toArrays(csv, {
delimiter: "'", // Sets a custom value delimiter character
separator: ';', // Sets a custom field separator character
});
Update 2:
It now works with jQuery on Node.js too. So you have the option of doing either client-side or server-side parsing with the same library.
Update 3:
Since the Google Code shutdown, jquery-csv has been migrated to GitHub.
Disclaimer: I am also the author of jQuery-CSV.
Here's an extremely simple CSV parser that handles quoted fields with commas, new lines, and escaped double quotation marks. There's no splitting or regular expression. It scans the input string 1-2 characters at a time and builds an array.
Test it at http://jsfiddle.net/vHKYH/.
function parseCSV(str) {
var arr = [];
var quote = false; // 'true' means we're inside a quoted field
// Iterate over each character, keep track of current row and column (of the returned array)
for (var row = 0, col = 0, c = 0; c < str.length; c++) {
var cc = str[c], nc = str[c+1]; // Current character, next character
arr[row] = arr[row] || []; // Create a new row if necessary
arr[row][col] = arr[row][col] || ''; // Create a new column (start with empty string) if necessary
// If the current character is a quotation mark, and we're inside a
// quoted field, and the next character is also a quotation mark,
// add a quotation mark to the current column and skip the next character
if (cc == '"' && quote && nc == '"') { arr[row][col] += cc; ++c; continue; }
// If it's just one quotation mark, begin/end quoted field
if (cc == '"') { quote = !quote; continue; }
// If it's a comma and we're not in a quoted field, move on to the next column
if (cc == ',' && !quote) { ++col; continue; }
// If it's a newline (CRLF) and we're not in a quoted field, skip the next character
// and move on to the next row and move to column 0 of that new row
if (cc == '\r' && nc == '\n' && !quote) { ++row; col = 0; ++c; continue; }
// If it's a newline (LF or CR) and we're not in a quoted field,
// move on to the next row and move to column 0 of that new row
if (cc == '\n' && !quote) { ++row; col = 0; continue; }
if (cc == '\r' && !quote) { ++row; col = 0; continue; }
// Otherwise, append the current character to the current column
arr[row][col] += cc;
}
return arr;
}
I have an implementation as part of a spreadsheet project.
This code is not yet tested thoroughly, but anyone is welcome to use it.
As some of the answers noted though, your implementation can be much simpler if you actually have DSV or TSV file, as they disallow the use of the record and field separators in the values. CSV, on the other hand, can actually have commas and newlines inside a field, which breaks most regular expression and split-based approaches.
var CSV = {
parse: function(csv, reviver) {
reviver = reviver || function(r, c, v) { return v; };
var chars = csv.split(''), c = 0, cc = chars.length, start, end, table = [], row;
while (c < cc) {
table.push(row = []);
while (c < cc && '\r' !== chars[c] && '\n' !== chars[c]) {
start = end = c;
if ('"' === chars[c]){
start = end = ++c;
while (c < cc) {
if ('"' === chars[c]) {
if ('"' !== chars[c+1]) {
break;
}
else {
chars[++c] = ''; // unescape ""
}
}
end = ++c;
}
if ('"' === chars[c]) {
++c;
}
while (c < cc && '\r' !== chars[c] && '\n' !== chars[c] && ',' !== chars[c]) {
++c;
}
} else {
while (c < cc && '\r' !== chars[c] && '\n' !== chars[c] && ',' !== chars[c]) {
end = ++c;
}
}
row.push(reviver(table.length-1, row.length, chars.slice(start, end).join('')));
if (',' === chars[c]) {
++c;
}
}
if ('\r' === chars[c]) {
++c;
}
if ('\n' === chars[c]) {
++c;
}
}
return table;
},
stringify: function(table, replacer) {
replacer = replacer || function(r, c, v) { return v; };
var csv = '', c, cc, r, rr = table.length, cell;
for (r = 0; r < rr; ++r) {
if (r) {
csv += '\r\n';
}
for (c = 0, cc = table[r].length; c < cc; ++c) {
if (c) {
csv += ',';
}
cell = replacer(r, c, table[r][c]);
if (/[,\r\n"]/.test(cell)) {
cell = '"' + cell.replace(/"/g, '""') + '"';
}
csv += (cell || 0 === cell) ? cell : '';
}
}
return csv;
}
};
csvToArray v1.3
A compact (645 bytes), but compliant function to convert a CSV string into a 2D array, conforming to the RFC4180 standard.
https://code.google.com/archive/p/csv-to-array/downloads
Common Usage: jQuery
$.ajax({
url: "test.csv",
dataType: 'text',
cache: false
}).done(function(csvAsString){
csvAsArray=csvAsString.csvToArray();
});
Common usage: JavaScript
csvAsArray = csvAsString.csvToArray();
Override field separator
csvAsArray = csvAsString.csvToArray("|");
Override record separator
csvAsArray = csvAsString.csvToArray("", "#");
Override Skip Header
csvAsArray = csvAsString.csvToArray("", "", 1);
Override all
csvAsArray = csvAsString.csvToArray("|", "#", 1);
Here's my PEG(.js) grammar that seems to do ok at RFC 4180 (i.e. it handles the examples at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values):
start
= [\n\r]* first:line rest:([\n\r]+ data:line { return data; })* [\n\r]* { rest.unshift(first); return rest; }
line
= first:field rest:("," text:field { return text; })*
& { return !!first || rest.length; } // ignore blank lines
{ rest.unshift(first); return rest; }
field
= '"' text:char* '"' { return text.join(''); }
/ text:[^\n\r,]* { return text.join(''); }
char
= '"' '"' { return '"'; }
/ [^"]
Try it out at http://jsfiddle.net/knvzk/10 or http://pegjs.majda.cz/online. Download the generated parser at https://gist.github.com/3362830.
Here's another solution. This uses:
a coarse global regular expression for splitting the CSV string (which includes surrounding quotes and trailing commas)
fine-grained regular expression for cleaning up the surrounding quotes and trailing commas
also, has type correction differentiating strings, numbers, boolean values and null values
For the following input string:
"This is\, a value",Hello,4,-123,3.1415,'This is also\, possible',true,
The code outputs:
[
"This is, a value",
"Hello",
4,
-123,
3.1415,
"This is also, possible",
true,
null
]
Here's my implementation of parseCSVLine() in a runnable code snippet:
function parseCSVLine(text) {
return text.match( /\s*(\"[^"]*\"|'[^']*'|[^,]*)\s*(,|$)/g ).map( function (text) {
let m;
if (m = text.match(/^\s*,?$/)) return null; // null value
if (m = text.match(/^\s*\"([^"]*)\"\s*,?$/)) return m[1]; // Double Quoted Text
if (m = text.match(/^\s*'([^']*)'\s*,?$/)) return m[1]; // Single Quoted Text
if (m = text.match(/^\s*(true|false)\s*,?$/)) return m[1] === "true"; // Boolean
if (m = text.match(/^\s*((?:\+|\-)?\d+)\s*,?$/)) return parseInt(m[1]); // Integer Number
if (m = text.match(/^\s*((?:\+|\-)?\d*\.\d*)\s*,?$/)) return parseFloat(m[1]); // Floating Number
if (m = text.match(/^\s*(.*?)\s*,?$/)) return m[1]; // Unquoted Text
return text;
} );
}
let data = `"This is\, a value",Hello,4,-123,3.1415,'This is also\, possible',true,`;
let obj = parseCSVLine(data);
console.log( JSON.stringify( obj, undefined, 2 ) );
Here's my simple vanilla JavaScript code:
let a = 'one,two,"three, but with a comma",four,"five, with ""quotes"" in it.."'
console.log(splitQuotes(a))
function splitQuotes(line) {
if(line.indexOf('"') < 0)
return line.split(',')
let result = [], cell = '', quote = false;
for(let i = 0; i < line.length; i++) {
char = line[i]
if(char == '"' && line[i+1] == '"') {
cell += char
i++
} else if(char == '"') {
quote = !quote;
} else if(!quote && char == ',') {
result.push(cell)
cell = ''
} else {
cell += char
}
if ( i == line.length-1 && cell) {
result.push(cell)
}
}
return result
}
I'm not sure why I couldn't get Kirtan's example to work for me. It seemed to be failing on empty fields or maybe fields with trailing commas...
This one seems to handle both.
I did not write the parser code, just a wrapper around the parser function to make this work for a file. See attribution.
var Strings = {
/**
* Wrapped CSV line parser
* #param s String delimited CSV string
* #param sep Separator override
* #attribution: http://www.greywyvern.com/?post=258 (comments closed on blog :( )
*/
parseCSV : function(s,sep) {
// http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1155678/javascript-string-newline-character
var universalNewline = /\r\n|\r|\n/g;
var a = s.split(universalNewline);
for(var i in a){
for (var f = a[i].split(sep = sep || ","), x = f.length - 1, tl; x >= 0; x--) {
if (f[x].replace(/"\s+$/, '"').charAt(f[x].length - 1) == '"') {
if ((tl = f[x].replace(/^\s+"/, '"')).length > 1 && tl.charAt(0) == '"') {
f[x] = f[x].replace(/^\s*"|"\s*$/g, '').replace(/""/g, '"');
} else if (x) {
f.splice(x - 1, 2, [f[x - 1], f[x]].join(sep));
} else f = f.shift().split(sep).concat(f);
} else f[x].replace(/""/g, '"');
} a[i] = f;
}
return a;
}
}
Regular expressions to the rescue! These few lines of code handle properly quoted fields with embedded commas, quotes, and newlines based on the RFC 4180 standard.
function parseCsv(data, fieldSep, newLine) {
fieldSep = fieldSep || ',';
newLine = newLine || '\n';
var nSep = '\x1D';
var qSep = '\x1E';
var cSep = '\x1F';
var nSepRe = new RegExp(nSep, 'g');
var qSepRe = new RegExp(qSep, 'g');
var cSepRe = new RegExp(cSep, 'g');
var fieldRe = new RegExp('(?<=(^|[' + fieldSep + '\\n]))"(|[\\s\\S]+?(?<![^"]"))"(?=($|[' + fieldSep + '\\n]))', 'g');
var grid = [];
data.replace(/\r/g, '').replace(/\n+$/, '').replace(fieldRe, function(match, p1, p2) {
return p2.replace(/\n/g, nSep).replace(/""/g, qSep).replace(/,/g, cSep);
}).split(/\n/).forEach(function(line) {
var row = line.split(fieldSep).map(function(cell) {
return cell.replace(nSepRe, newLine).replace(qSepRe, '"').replace(cSepRe, ',');
});
grid.push(row);
});
return grid;
}
const csv = 'A1,B1,C1\n"A ""2""","B, 2","C\n2"';
const separator = ','; // field separator, default: ','
const newline = ' <br /> '; // newline representation in case a field contains newlines, default: '\n'
var grid = parseCsv(csv, separator, newline);
// expected: [ [ 'A1', 'B1', 'C1' ], [ 'A "2"', 'B, 2', 'C <br /> 2' ] ]
You don't need a parser-generator such as lex/yacc. The regular expression handles RFC 4180 properly thanks to positive lookbehind, negative lookbehind, and positive lookahead.

Just throwing this out there.. I recently ran into the need to parse CSV columns with Javascript, and I opted for my own simple solution. It works for my needs, and may help someone else.
const csvString = '"Some text, some text",,"",true,false,"more text","more,text, more, text ",true';
const parseCSV = text => {
const lines = text.split('\n');
const output = [];
lines.forEach(line => {
line = line.trim();
if (line.length === 0) return;
const skipIndexes = {};
const columns = line.split(',');
output.push(columns.reduce((result, item, index) => {
if (skipIndexes[index]) return result;
if (item.startsWith('"') && !item.endsWith('"')) {
while (!columns[index + 1].endsWith('"')) {
index++;
item += `,${columns[index]}`;
skipIndexes[index] = true;
}
index++;
skipIndexes[index] = true;
item += `,${columns[index]}`;
}
result.push(item);
return result;
}, []));
});
return output;
};
console.log(parseCSV(csvString));
Personally I like to use deno std library since most modules are officially compatible with the browser
The problem is that the std is in typescript but official solution might happen in the future https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/issues/641 https://github.com/denoland/dotland/issues/1728
For now there is an actively maintained on the fly transpiler https://bundle.deno.dev/
so you can use it simply like this
<script type="module">
import { parse } from "https://bundle.deno.dev/https://deno.land/std#0.126.0/encoding/csv.ts"
console.log(await parse("a,b,c\n1,2,3"))
</script>
I have constructed this JavaScript script to parse a CSV in string to array object. I find it better to break down the whole CSV into lines, fields and process them accordingly. I think that it will make it easy for you to change the code to suit your need.
//

//
//
const new_line_char = '\n';
const field_separator_char = ',';
function parse_csv(csv_str) {

let line_start_index = 0;
let line_end_index = 0;
let csr_index = 0;
let cursor_val = csv_str[csr_index];
let found_new_line_char = get_new_line_char(csv_str);
let in_quote = false;
