kgaoganyaMokwalo

Splits text into a list of pieces.

When you give nothing else, the text is split at every stretch of whitespace — a space, a tab, or a new line.

When you give a second value, every single character in it is a splitting place of its own. So kgaoganyaMokwalo("a;b,c", ";,") splits on ; and on ,, returning three pieces.

All the pieces come back as text. When you want numbers, pass them through palotlalo or palophatlo.

Note: p5 2.x removed split, join, trim and match. kgaoganyaMokwalo is the one that remains, and JavaScript's own built-in functions still work.

Syntax

kgaoganyaMokwalo(boleng, dikgaolo)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
boleng	mokwalo	The text to split.
dikgaolo (optional)	mokwalo	The delimiter characters. Each single character works on its own. Defaults to whitespace when omitted.

Examples

A colour that arrived as a single string

tiro setaLoeto() {
  thalaKanefase(400, 400);
  bokamorago(220);
  tlogelaMothalo();

  diri boleng = "240 120 40";
  diri dikarolo = kgaoganyaMokwalo(boleng);

  kwala(dikarolo);

  diri r = palotlalo(dikarolo[0]);
  diri g = palotlalo(dikarolo[1]);
  diri b = palotlalo(dikarolo[2]);

  tlatsaMmala(r, g, b);
  kgolokwe(200, 200, 240);
}

Delimiters of your own choosing

tiro setaLoeto() {
  thalaKanefase(400, 400);
  bokamorago(220);
  tlogelaMothalo();

  diri dikarolo = kgaoganyaMokwalo("60;120,180", ";,");
  kwala(dikarolo);

  diri x = 90;
  gopheta (metlha karolo mo dikarolo) {
    tlatsaMmala(0, 120, 200);
    kgolokwe(x, 200, palotlalo(karolo));
    x = x + 110;
  }
}
