I am trying to replace all instances of a character in a string of text with another character but I'm not succeeding.
Suppose the text is
cat rat mat fat I want the script to replace all the t's to p's
cap rap map fap What I have is the following but it seems to do little for me.
SET /P MY_TEXT=ENTER TEXT: SET T2P=P SET NEW_TEXT=%TEXT=:T!T2P!% MSG * %NEW_TEXT%

Java String replace() MethodThe replace() method searches a string for a specified character, and returns a new string where the specified character(s) are replaced.
The Python replace() method is used to find and replace characters in a string. It requires a substring to be passed as an argument; the function finds and replaces it. The replace() method is commonly used in data cleaning.
Try this
setlocal set string=cat rat mat fat set string=%string:t=p% You've got the = sign in the wrong place. Try:
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion set /P MY_TEXT=ENTER TEXT: SET T2P=P set NEW_TEXT=%MY_TEXT:T=!T2P!% MSG * %NEW_TEXT% You can also do the expansion the other way round, i.e.
set NEW_TEXT=!MY_TEXT:T=%T2P%! If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
