[SOLVED]How to substitute int with their ascii value in a string?

Question

Suppose a list:
["hello116her101", "wh97116isu112"]

I want to substitute int with their ascii value between a-z (97-123).
Then output list will be:
["hellothere", "whatisup"]

The main problem i am facing is with integers in groups like "97116" which should become "at" (97=a & 116=t).

Answer 1

Carlos I wrote this last night, but then I got tired and went to sleep when you replied. I have tried it and it looks okay so far, but I haven't tested it thoroughly, so if there's a problem, please reply mentioning the words to test, so I can try to fix it.

Answer 2

The challenge here I guess , is to correctly predict how many digits is to be read to be converted to a character.

Answer 3

Ipang yeah i believe the guess should be between 2 to 3 chars.
Then can it be:
If len(integers chars checked)==2
Then substitute
If len(integers chars checked)==3
Then substitute
???

As if an integer less than 97 pops up then the substitution should skip??

Answer 4

Ipang I am actually really confused about my code😵

And this undebugable error makes me worse.

Answer 5

Ipang Nicee!! That's what I wanted . It is the best i could have thought of.
I have tried many possible conditions in your code and it passes all. Thanks very much!!😃

Answer 6

Ipang I have also tried to solve for hours last night and came up with this:

I know it's not as much efficient as your. But kinda okayish.

Edit: And it also fails many conditions like "999hello116her101" which outputs "chelloher". instead of "c9hellothere".
