strip chars

[whittinghamj]

I have an output of

Code: Select all

123/4567.89

I am trying to strip out (delete) everything before the " / " AND get rid of the " / " as well. Any ideas please? the part of 123 will change from between 4 and 8 letters so cannot do a static removal - need to search for " / " and del everything < it if that makes sence

Thanks in advance

Code: Select all

regsub {(.*?)/(.*?)} $inputvar {\2} outputvar

Check the tcl regsub manpage for details about subSpec and such.

Try using split

[lindex [split "123/4567.89" /] 1]

would return 4567.89
