stripLeft

The strip group of functions allow stripping of either leading, trailing, or both leading and trailing elements.

The stripLeft function will strip the front of the range, the stripRight function will strip the back of the range, while the strip function will strip both the front and back of the range.

Note that the strip and stripRight functions require the range to be a BidirectionalRange range.

All of these functions come in two varieties: one takes a target element, where the range will be stripped as long as this element can be found. The other takes a lambda predicate, where the range will be stripped as long as the predicate returns true.

  1. Range stripLeft(Range range, E element)
  2. Range stripLeft(Range range)

Examples

Strip leading and trailing elements equal to the target element.

assert("  foobar  ".strip(' ') == "foobar");
assert("00223.444500".strip('0') == "223.4445");
assert("ëëêéüŗōpéêëë".strip('ë') == "êéüŗōpéê");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].strip(1) == [0]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.01, 0.0].strip(0).length == 2);

Strip leading and trailing elements while the predicate returns true.

assert("  foobar  ".strip!(a => a == ' ')() == "foobar");
assert("00223.444500".strip!(a => a == '0')() == "223.4445");
assert("ëëêéüŗōpéêëë".strip!(a => a == 'ë')() == "êéüŗōpéê");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].strip!(a => a == 1)() == [0]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.5, 0.6, 0.01, 0.0].strip!(a => a < 0.4)().length == 2);

Strip leading elements equal to the target element.

assert("  foobar  ".stripLeft(' ') == "foobar  ");
assert("00223.444500".stripLeft('0') == "223.444500");
assert("ůůűniçodêéé".stripLeft('ů') == "űniçodêéé");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].stripLeft(1) == [0, 1, 1]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.01, 0.0].stripLeft(0).length == 3);

Strip leading elements while the predicate returns true.

assert("  foobar  ".stripLeft!(a => a == ' ')() == "foobar  ");
assert("00223.444500".stripLeft!(a => a == '0')() == "223.444500");
assert("ůůűniçodêéé".stripLeft!(a => a == 'ů')() == "űniçodêéé");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].stripLeft!(a => a == 1)() == [0, 1, 1]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.10, 0.5, 0.6].stripLeft!(a => a < 0.4)().length == 2);

Strip trailing elements equal to the target element.

assert("  foobar  ".stripRight(' ') == "  foobar");
assert("00223.444500".stripRight('0') == "00223.4445");
assert("ùniçodêéé".stripRight('é') == "ùniçodê");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].stripRight(1) == [1, 1, 0]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.01, 0.0].stripRight(0).length == 3);

Strip trailing elements while the predicate returns true.

assert("  foobar  ".stripRight!(a => a == ' ')() == "  foobar");
assert("00223.444500".stripRight!(a => a == '0')() == "00223.4445");
assert("ùniçodêéé".stripRight!(a => a == 'é')() == "ùniçodê");
assert([1, 1, 0, 1, 1].stripRight!(a => a == 1)() == [1, 1, 0]);
assert([0.0, 0.01, 0.10, 0.5, 0.6].stripRight!(a => a > 0.4)().length == 3);
