& member() Syntax: member(<list>, <word>[, <delim>]) This function takes a list and a word, and returns the position of that word within the list. If the word does not occur in the list, then 0 is returned. Unlike match(), member() does not check for wildcarding, and the cases of <list> and <word> are significant. A word is defined as a string which has no interior spaces. So 'hello' would be one word, while 'hello there' would be two. <delim> may be used to specify a delimiter other than a space. Example: > say member(This is a member test, member) You say "4" > say member(This is a member test, Member) You say "0" > say member(This is a member test, *e*) You say "0" > say member(This is a member test, is a) You say "#-1 CAN ONLY TEST ONE ELEMENT" See Also: LISTS, match(), strmatch()
