insertAfter

Insert string after substring in Requirements Table block

Since R2022b

Syntax

newStr = insertAfter(str,subStr,new)

newStr = insertAfter(str,pos,new)

Description

newStr = insertAfter(str,subStr,new) inserts the string new into the string str after the substring subStr. insertAfter inserts new after every occurrence of subStr. Use this operator in the Requirements Table block.

newStr = insertAfter(str,pos,new) inserts new into str after the character position pos.

Examples

Insert Text After Substring

In a Requirements Table block, create a requirement that inserts the substring " there" after the substring "Hello," in the string "Hello, world!". The output is "Hello there, world!".

y = insertAfter("Hello, world!","Hello"," there")

Insert Text After Character Position

In a Requirements Table block, create a requirement that inserts the substring " there" after the fifth character of the string "Hello, world!". The output is "Hello there, world!".

y = insertAfter("Hello, world!",5," there")
