Join tag

Joins value tag to base string.

Use it instead of '+'. Single plus joins '.toString' instead of '.tag', which often does not make sense especially for 'opaque values'

Note. This method should logically be called '+'. However, it is already defined in 'final class String' and cannot be overridden.

  val p = 12.Percent

  val s = "Value: " ++ p

  // same result as

  val s = "Value: " + p.tag

Optional join

Joins option value to base string.

Returns String "as is" for empty option.

Insert at position

Creates new String with x inserted at the specified position

"0123456789".insertAt(5,"abc").tp // Prints: 01234abc56789

Capitalize

Capitalizes first character of every word (separated by white spaces)

"all string ops".label.tp // Prints: All String Ops

toLowerCase

Creates new String with all upper case Chars changed to lower case

"ABc".lower.tp // Prints: abc

Pad end

  Pads end of string to `targetLength`

Pad start

  Pads start of string to `targetLength`

Remove all

Creates new String with all occurrences of x removed

"123123123123".remove("2").tp // Prints: 13131313

Replace range with x

Creates new String with all occurrences of x replaced with target

"0123456789".replace(3 <> 7 ,"_").tp // Prints: 012_89

Replace all

Creates new String with all occurrences of x replaced with target

"123123123123".replace("2","_").tp // Prints: 1_31_31_31_3
