Hi @learnrpa0910

Can you try this

The image shows a sequence of automation steps where an input string "2a3b4c" is transformed into the output "aabbbcccc" using UiPath activities, and the result is displayed in a message box. (Captioned by AI)

Output = String.Concat(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(Input,"(\d+)([a-zA-Z])").Cast(Of System.Text.RegularExpressions.Match).Select(Function(m) New String(m.Groups(2).Value(0),CInt(m.Groups(1).Value))))

@lrtetala ,

great, its working.

but can we make more dynamic since input is expected to change dynamically(ex 3d2c5h7y or 3v6h7a ).

thank you

It would work for all cases

The image depicts a sequence of UiPath activities where an input string "3d2c5h7y" is processed to repeat characters generating "dddccchhhyyyyy" which is then displayed in a message box. (Captioned by AI)

The image shows an automation workflow where a string with alphanumeric characters is converted to a repeating sequence of its letters, and displayed in a message box. (Captioned by AI)

FYI, another approach:

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(strInput,"(\d+)(\D)",Function(m) New String(m.Groups(2).Value.ToCharArray.First ,Cint(m.Groups(1).Value)))

Hi @learnrpa0910

Use below exp:
Output = String.Concat(System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(Input, “(\d+)([a-zA-Z])”).Cast(Of System.Text.RegularExpressions.Match).Select(Function(m) New String(m.Groups(2).Value(0), CInt(m.Groups(1).Value))))

A UiPath workflow is shown, which processes an input string '3d2c5h7y' by extracting and transforming elements to produce an output 'dddcchhhyyyyyyy', as evidenced by the debug output. (Captioned by AI)
