Let's say I have a string I want to check for any one of several
substrings.
Is there a way to do something like this:
set stringToSearch to "I have a brand new pair of rollerskates"
if stringToSearch contains any item of {"new","rollerblade} then
-- at least one item from the list was found
end if
I know you can iterate through the list with repeat, I was just
wondering about a concise way to do it.
set stringToSearch to "I have a brand new pair of rollerskates"
if (stringToSearch contains some item of {"new", "rollerblade"}) then
return some word of stringToSearch
end if
On second thought, that's probably not what you need.
