Algorithm (Workflow)
This function, stringfnctresult
, is designed to parse a function equation string and extract the left-hand side (LHS) and right-hand side (RHS) of the equation. It is part of the SolidGeometry library and is used to support batch job result collection.
Input Parameters
- str: A string representing a function equation. This can be a simple function call or an assignment operation.
Output Results
- le: A list of output variable names (LHS of the equation).
- re: The function or expression (RHS of the equation).
Algorithm Steps
- Use
strtok
to split the input string str
at the '=' character.
- If there is no '=' in the string, set
le
to 'ans' and re
to the trimmed input string.
- If '=' is present:
- Set
le
to the trimmed LHS of the equation.
- Set
re
to the trimmed RHS of the equation, excluding the '=' character.
- If
le
starts with '[', indicating multiple outputs:
- Trim the brackets and split the string by ',' to get individual output variable names.
- Trim each variable name and store them in
le
.
Example Usage
stringfnctresult('sqrt(4)')
returns le = 'ans'
and re = 'sqrt(4)'
.
stringfnctresult('A=sqrt(4)')
returns le = 'A'
and re = 'sqrt(4)'
.
stringfnctresult('[A,B,C]=sqrt(4)')
returns le = {'A', 'B', 'C'}
and re = 'sqrt(4)'
.
