level20peon Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I would like to know if I can do this in one pass (example #1) rather than three passes (example #2): #include <date.au3> $datetime='2013-09-05 10:21' $date=StringRegExpReplace($datetime, '.*?([^-+]*?)-([^-+]*?)-([^ ]*?) .*$', '"$1","$2","$3"') $Dayofwk=_DateToDayOfWeek($date) ... leads to "Incorrect number of parameters in function call.". #include <date.au3> $datetime='2013-09-05 10:21' $Y=StringRegExpReplace($End_Time, '.*?([^-+]*?)-([^-+]*?)-([^ ]*?) .*$', '$1') $M=StringRegExpReplace($End_Time, '.*?([^-+]*?)-([^-+]*?)-([^ ]*?) .*$', '$2') $D=StringRegExpReplace($End_Time, '.*?([^-+]*?)-([^-+]*?)-([^ ]*?) .*$', '$3') $Dayofwk=_DateToDayOfWeek($Y,$M,$D) ... works as expected.

Malkey Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 This StringRegExp function put all digit sequences into an array.The first three elements of the array will be year, month, and day.These three elements of the array make up the three parameters of the _DateToDayOfWeek function.#include <date.au3> ;#include <Array.au3> ; For _ArrayDisplay only Local $datetime = '2013-09-05 10:21' Local $aDate = StringRegExp($datetime, '\d+', 3) ;_ArrayDisplay($aDate) Local $Dayofwk = _DateToDayOfWeek($aDate[0], $aDate[1], $aDate[2]) ConsoleWrite($Dayofwk & @LF) ; Returns 5 ConsoleWrite(_DateDayOfWeek($Dayofwk) & @LF) ; Returns Thursday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
level20peon Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 Thank you, that works. Is it generally not possible to take one variable and put the commas - which separate the function arguments - into it and then just call the function with this single variable inside the functions argument brackets?

TheSaint Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) Think about it, you are providing one parameter. A comma inside that string is just that ... a comma in a string. All you are really passing is a string. If you wanted to get the three required parameters from your string, you could have used StringSplit with the comma as delimiter.
