Remove letters and words from a string

[Popcorn]

This example is for Panchos:

I need to be able to remove everything in brackets from a string.

Eg if my string was "user (dead)" i want to make it "user".
if my string was "123KingLOLz teh WIN (OWNED)" i want to make it "123KingLOLz teh WIN"




How could i do that?

i was thinking of running a fastloop for the length of the string, and adding 1 per loop until it hit a "(", when it would stop the loop and set the string's Value A to the loop's index

afterwards it would just do a left$() on the string using the stored index value

but this works too

EDIT: actually yours looks like it can detect multiple groups of parenthesis, so nevermind

It just hit me, I could do this ALOT easier... just get rid of those two extra string objects I made. Dunno why I didn't think of this earlier...

How would you do this with a list and have it so that there can't be any numbers?

[Popcorn]

Guitarist, I don't follow.. can you explain a bit more what you want to do?

For anyone interested, the easiest way to remove strings is to use the Substring Replace 2 Object. Then you simply replace "(dead)" with ""

Popcorn,I'm making a music program where you can upload and listen to songs. But some of the songs have numbers at the begging of the name but i don't want this so how would i make them not show the numbers when uploaded?

You could run a fastloop that would check the first character and delete it until it was no longer a number.
