| + | ======Synopsis:====== | ||
| + | $__igetrmatches__(<array> <string>) | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Technical:====== | ||
| + | This function treats the items in array as wildcard patterns, and returns | ||
| + | a word list of index values such that | ||
| + | |||
| + | for i in ($igetrmatches(<array> <string>)) { | ||
| + | if (<string> =~ igetitem(<array> $i)) { | ||
| + | echo True | ||
| + | } else { | ||
| + | echo False | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | } | ||
| + | |||
| + | only outputs True and enver False. This is the converse of [[getrmatches]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Practical:====== | ||
| + | The $__getmatches__() function is used to retrieve all items in the given | ||
| + | array that match the given pattern. Similarly, $__getrmatches__() is used | ||
| + | to retrieve all items that match the given string. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Returns:====== | ||
| + | list of item numbers corresponding to matches | ||
