Hey goodevening, I am struggling with this: i have a long string a982k298e863q982 I am wondering if it would be possible (i''ve searched but no luck) to use split to parse the 4 products contained in this string to get ["a982","k298","e863","q982"] every product is alway''s 4 characters long. Is string.split the way to go- or should I just process the string character by character? Thanks a million!! kind regards, Marco Kotrotsos --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

''a982k298e863q982''.split(/(.{4})/).without('''')
is the only thing I can
think of for now using split
The other solution being of course:
''a982k298e863q982''.toArray().inGroupsOf(4).invoke(''join'',
'''')
Hope this helps,
Tobie

Thanks Rob. I always do this. Forget about using match in these cases.
