Add char in between string

I want a function which takes string as an argument and add any char between string after every 3 letters.

For example:

func("11111111"){}

will return:

11,111,111

Solution 1: Arthur Khabirov

String func(String str){

RegExp exp = RegExp(r".{1,3}");
Iterable<Match> matches = exp.allMatches(str);

List&lt;dynamic&gt; list = [];
matches.forEach((m)=&gt;list.add(m.group(0)));

return list.join(',');
}

If I understand your question correctly

import 'dart:math' as math;

String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
  String newStr = '';
  int step = 3;
  for (int i = 0; i < src.length; i += step) {
    newStr += src.substring(i, math.min(i + step, src.length));
    if (i + step < src.length) newStr += divider;
  }
  return newStr;
}

UPD: (for separating symbols from end, not from beginning)

String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
  String newStr = '';
  int step = 3;
  for (int i = src.length - 1; i >= 0; i -= step) {
    String subString ='';
    if (i > 3) {
      subString += divider;
    }
    subString += src.substring( i < step ? 0 : i - step, i);
    newStr = subString + newStr;
  }
  return newStr;
}

Solution 3: Moujabr

Try this:

  String myFunction(String str, String separator) {
    String tempString = "";
    for(int i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
      if(i % 3 == 0 && i > 0) {
        tempString = tempString + separator;
      }
      tempString = tempString + str[i];
    }
    return tempString;
  }

And use it for example, like this:

Text(myFunction("111111111", ","))

The other solutions work for your stated problem, but if you are looking to add commas in numbers (as in your example), you'll want to add the comma's from the right to the left instead. ie: 12345678 you would want 12,345,678 not 123,456,78

String convertFun(String src, String divider) {
    StringBuilder newStr = new StringBuilder();
    int step = 3;
    for (int i = src.length(); i > 0; i -= step) {
        newStr.insert(0, src.substring( i < step ? 0 : i - step, i));
        if (i > 3) {
            newStr.insert(0, divider);
        }
    }
    return newStr.toString();
}
