CSPICE_REPMCT replaces a marker with the text representation of a
cardinal number.
Given:
in an arbitrary character string.
[1,c1] = size(in); char = class(in)
or
[1,1] = size(in); cell = class(in)
marker an arbitrary character string.
[1,c2] = size(marker); char = class(marker)
or
[1,1] = size(marker); cell = class(marker)
The first occurrence of `marker' in the input string is to
be replaced by the text representation of the cardinal number
`value'.
Leading and trailing blanks in `marker' are NOT
significant. In particular, no substitution is performed
if `marker' is blank or empty.
value an arbitrary integer.
[1,1] = size(value); int32 = class(value)
rtcase indicates the case of the replacement text.
[1,1] = size(rtcase); char = class(rtcase)
or
[1,1] = size(rtcase); cell = class(rtcase)
`rtcase' may be any of the following:
rtcase Meaning Example
------ ----------- -----------------------
U, u Uppercase ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-THREE
L, l Lowercase one hundred fifty-three
C, c Capitalized One hundred fifty-three
the call:
[out] = cspice_repmct( in, marker, value, rtcase )
returns:
out the string obtained by substituting the text representation
of the cardinal number `value' for the first occurrence of
`marker' in the input string.
[1,c3] = size(out); char = class(out)
None.
Any numerical results shown for this example may differ between
platforms as the results depend on the SPICE kernels used as input
and the machine specific arithmetic implementation.
1) The following example illustrate the use of cspice_repmct to
replace a marker within a string with the cardinal text
corresponding to an integer.
Example code begins here.
function repmct_ex1()
%
% 1. Uppercase
%
marker = '#';
instr = 'INVALID COMMAND. WORD # NOT RECOGNIZED.';
[outstr] = cspice_repmct( instr, marker, 5, 'U' );
fprintf( 'Case 1: Replacement text in uppercase.\n' )
fprintf( ' Input : %s\n', instr )
fprintf( ' Output: %s\n', outstr )
fprintf( '\n' )
%
% 2. Lowercase
%
marker = ' XX ';
instr = 'Word XX of the XX sentence was ...';
[outstr] = cspice_repmct( instr, marker, 5, 'L' );
fprintf( 'Case 2: Replacement text in lowercase.\n' )
fprintf( ' Input : %s\n', instr )
fprintf( ' Output: %s\n', outstr )
fprintf( '\n' )
%
% 2. Capitalized
%
marker = ' XX ';
instr = 'Name: YY. Rank: XX.';
[outstr] = cspice_repmc( instr, 'YY', 'Moriarty' );
[outstr] = cspice_repmct( outstr, marker, 5, 'C' );
fprintf( 'Case 3: Replacement text capitalized.\n' )
fprintf( ' Input : %s\n', instr )
fprintf( ' Output: %s\n', outstr )
When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/Octave6.x/64-bit
platform, the output was:
Case 1: Replacement text in uppercase.
Input : INVALID COMMAND. WORD # NOT RECOGNIZED.
Output: INVALID COMMAND. WORD FIVE NOT RECOGNIZED.
Case 2: Replacement text in lowercase.
Input : Word XX of the XX sentence was ...
Output: Word five of the XX sentence was ...
Case 3: Replacement text capitalized.
Input : Name: YY. Rank: XX.
Output: Name: Moriarty. Rank: Five.
This is one of a family of related routines for inserting values
into strings. They are typically used to construct messages that
are partly fixed, and partly determined at run time. For example,
a message like
'Fifty-one pictures were found in directory [USER.DATA].'
might be constructed from the fixed string
'#1 pictures were found in directory #2.'
by the calls
[string] = cspice_repmct( string, '#1', 51, 'C' );
[string] = cspice_repmc( string, '#2', '[USER.DATA]' );
which substitute the cardinal text 'Fifty-one' and the character
string '[USER.DATA]' for the markers '#1' and '#2' respectively.
The complete list of routines is shown below.
cspice_repmc ( Replace marker with character string value )
cspice_repmd ( Replace marker with double precision value )
cspice_repmf ( Replace marker with formatted d.p. value )
cspice_repmi ( Replace marker with integer value )
cspice_repml ( Replace marker with logical value )
cspice_repmct ( Replace marker with cardinal text )
cspice_repmot ( Replace marker with ordinal text )
1) If `marker' is blank or empty, or if `marker' is not a substring of
`in', no substitution is performed. (`out' and `in' are identical.)
2) If the value of `rtcase' is not recognized, the error
SPICE(INVALIDCASE) is signaled by a routine in the call tree
of this routine. `out' is not changed.
3) If any of the input arguments, `in', `marker', `value' or
`rtcase', is undefined, an error is signaled by the Matlab
error handling system.
4) If any of the input arguments, `in', `marker', `value' or
`rtcase', is not of the expected type, or it does not have the
expected dimensions and size, an error is signaled by the Mice
interface.
None.
1) `value' must be in the range accepted by the SPICELIB routine
INTTXT. This range is currently
( -10**12, 10**12 )
Note that the endpoints of the interval are excluded.
MICE.REQ
None.
