Hello.
Along these lines, I'd just like to mention that in the
NCL version "a030", there is a function in contributed.ncl
that allows users the extract a substring from a variable
of type string.
function getSubString (s[*]:string, iStrt:integer, iLast:integer)
;*************************************************************************
; extract a sub-string from one or more strings
; a = "0850-0899"
; a1= getSubString(a, 0, 3) ; ==> a1 = "0850"
; a2= getSubString(a, 5, 8) ; ==> a2 = "0899"
;
; A = (/ "vorticity", "flux", "divergence" /)
; As= getSubString(A, 0, 4) ; ==> As = (/"vort","flux","dive"/)
;*************************************************************************
