Hi.
I have tried to use the Regpat package in order to find occurrences in
a text string. In the packge I read I could get undefined number of
occurrences, but when trying to use it, I says that the variable where
the occurrences will be stored(the Match_array variable) needs
initialization. So is it possible to get an undefined number of
occurrences?
This an example string I have:
city[hotel1,hotel2,hotel3]{restaurant1, restaurant2}
the line could also look like this:
city{restaurant1, restaurant2}[hotel1,hotel2,hotel3]

And I would like to get in one array(or another data type) all the
restaurants, in another one all the hotels and in on single string the
city name.

Any idea how to get this?
thx in advance.
