LabVIEW
Formatting Array to String challenge
I have a 1D array of integers. For example:
paul_a_cardinale_0-1736359565783.png
I can easily use this:
paul_a_cardinale_1-1736359683170.png to yield this:
paul_a_cardinale_2-1736359716205.png
But what I really want is for every other separator to be a slash, like this:
paul_a_cardinale_4-1736359885507.png
Who can come up with the simplest code to do that?

If using subVIs from vi.lib is allowed:
And if not (or even in general!), we would probably do this.

(Of course we must be assume that there is an even number of elements)
Yeah but "Array To Spreadsheet String" annoyingly adds an End of Line at the end, so you would have to trim that.

Yes, a simple trim whitespace (as in the original code) will do that...
(Still faster than digging through vi.lib unless you know exactly where things are ...) 😄

Toolkit "Hidden Gems in vi.lib" adds a palette to expose some functions like this one.
I am sure Paul has it, since it adds some hidden scripting functions as well 🙂.

I'd actually rather see how Rube-ish we can get it. 😉
