How to replace string that perfectly matchs the string?

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
The title might be a litle vague, but I am looking to replace a string on a text by another string using regexprep or any other function. However, all my attempts have failed.
For the following example:
str = 'a = 1; b = 2; var1 = a + b; bar1 = a*b;'
If I use regexprep
>> regexprep(str, 'a', 'v1')
ans =
'v1 = 1; b = 2; vv1r1 = v1 + b; bv1r1 = v1*b;'
However, I was looking for:
'v1 = 1; b = 2; var1 = v1 + b; bar1 = v1*b;'
I have been reading the documentation and try differents aproachs, but I could not figure out this. I have a feeling that regexprep can easily solve this problem. I just need to trick this a bit.
Tks in advance, I will keep digging on.

str = 'a = 1; b = 2; var1 = a + b; bar1 = a*b;';
new_str = regexprep(str, 'a\>', 'v1');
Result:
new_str =
'v1 = 1; b = 2; var1 = v1 + b; bar1 = v1*b;'

Hi Ameer,
Actualy it did not work quite well. Check the following example:
str = 'An = B(m+1:n,m+1:n); C = D(1:m,mn+1:n);'
It is returning the following:
regexprep(str, 'n\>', 'X')
ans =
'AX = B(m+1:X,m+1:X); C = D(1:m,mX+1:X);'
However, the output should be:
ans =
'An = B(m+1:X,m+1:X); C = D(1:m,mn+1:X);'

For this specific case
str = 'An = B(m+1:n,m+1:n); C = D(1:m,mn+1:n);';
new_str = regexprep(str, '([^\w])n\>', '$1X')
Result:
new_str =
'An = B(m+1:X,m+1:X); C = D(1:m,mn+1:X);'
The actual regular expression depends on the complete specification of the string.
