I want help to insert space between digits and letters in a alphanumeric string.
INPUT
Code:
TRY234TER
PHY1TYR
EXPECTED OUTPUT
Code:
TRY 234 TER
PHY 1 TYR
The lines always begin with the letters and the alphabets will be a three letter combination before and after the number. The number can either be a one digit, two, three or four digit. I want to have a space between letters and digits as shown in the expected output.

Hi there
With shell script I'm trying to split the string into two parts. One is alphanumeric part, the other one is a numeric part.
dummy_postcode_1 = 'SL1'
--> res_alpha = 'SL' and res_numeric = '1'
dummy_postcode_2 = 'S053'
--> res_alpha = 'S' and res_numeric = '053' ... (1 Reply)
Okay I will let users input spaces as well :)
I am having a mental block. I have done a couple of searches but havent found anything that I understand (the likes of :alpha: and awk).
Basically I want to give the user an option to enter some text which will go down as a field within a flat... (3 Replies)

Hi,
I would like to be able to parse out a substring matching a basic pattern, which is a character followed by 3 or 4 digits (for example S1234 out of a larger string). The main string would just be a filename, like Thisis__the FileName_S1234_ToParse.txt. The filename isn't fixed, but the... (2 Replies)

Hi,
I want a script of a code that will allow me to generate all possible combinations of alphanumberica characters of length 12 such that each string will contain numbers and either small or capital letters.
For example a string may look like this: 123AB45cd678. (11 Replies)

ctype(3C)ctype(3C)NAME
ctype: isalnum(), isalpha(), isascii(), isblank(), iscntrl(), isdigit(), isgraph(), islower(), isprint(), ispunct(), isspace(), isupper(),
isxdigit() - classify characters according to type
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
These functions classify character-coded integer values according to the rules of the coded character set identified by the last successful
call to (see setlocale(3C)). Each function is a predicate returning nonzero for true, zero for false.
If has not been called successfully, characters are classified according to the rules of the default ASCII 7-bit coded character set (see
setlocale(3C)).
is defined on all integer values; the other functions are defined for the range (EOF) through
RETURN VALUE
The functions return nonzero under the following circumstances; zero otherwise:
c is an alphanumeric (letters or digits).
c is a letter.
c is any ASCII character code between 0 and 0177, inclusive.
c is a blank character; that is, a space or a tab.
c is a control character (in ASCII: character codes less than 040 and the delete character(0177)).
c is a decimal digit (in ASCII: characters [0-9]).
c is a visible character (in ASCII: printing characters, excluding the space character(040)).
c is a lowercase letter.
c is a printing character.
c is a punctuation character (in ASCII: any printing character except the space character(040), digits, letters).
c is a character that creates whitespace in displayed text (in ASCII: space, tab, carriage return, newline, verti-
cal tab, and formfeed).
c is an uppercase letter.
c is a hexadecimal digit (in ASCII: characters [0-9], [A-F] or [a-f]).
If the argument to any of these functions is outside the domain of the function, the result is undefined.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
The category determines the classification of character type.
International Code Set Support
Single-byte character code sets are supported.
WARNINGS
These functions are supplied both as library functions and as macros defined in the header. Normally, the macro versions are used. To
obtain the library function, either use a to remove the macro definition or, if compiling in ANSI-C mode, enclose the function name in
parenthesis or take its address. The following example uses the library functions for and
