Question

I am having an issue where I try to create a string but one of the letters in that string (m) is being dropped. I don’t understand what is going on, how do you fix it?

This is the code:

typeTo.text = [typeTo.text stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"random" withString:@"(random (1,10000000)/10000000)"];
NSLog(@"%@", typeTo.text);

NSLog prints:

rando

Thanks

Please check the input string… I just tested this:

NSString *initialString = @"a random string is always random";
initialString = [initialString stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"random" withString:@"(random (1,10000000)/10000000)"];
NSLog(@"%@", initialString);

And it printed:

2012-03-17 21:15:41.276 Untitled[39581:903] a (random
(1,10000000)/10000000) string is always (random (1,10000000)/10000000)

It’s working fine, replacing all occurrences of random with (random (1,10000000)/10000000).
