Hi,
I am trying to check to make sure the a string contains at least 1
uppercase character, 1 lowercase character and 1 number.
Any ideas as of the best way of coding this?
If you restrict yourself to Latin ansi encoding and 'number' means a
numeric digit which does not have to be a whole word, the code is fairly
simple since almost no parsing is required. Other cases and encodings
require more complex string parsing. For example:
-- code begin --
function Valid(const s: string): boolean;
function HasLowerUpperNumeric: boolean;
var
c: Char;
lower: boolean=False;
upper: boolean=False;
numeric: boolean=False;
begin
Result:=False;
for c in s do begin
if c in ['a'..'z'] then
lower:=True
else if c in ['A'..'Z'] then
upper:=True
else if c in ['0'..'9'] then
numeric:=True;
if lower and upper and numeric then
Exit(True);
end;
end;
begin
if Length(s) < 3 then
Exit(False);
Result:=HasLowerUpperNumeric;
end;
-- code end ---
