# strReplace(str,old,new)

Replaces occurrences of a target string within the input string.

### Syntax

o_strReplace(str,old,new)
  str: scalar Text - input string
  old: scalar Text - target string
  new: scalar Text - replacement string
  return: Text with substituted string

### Usage

The input string is searched for the target string. When found the replacement string is inserted in place of the target string. The resulting string is then processed in the same way until target string is no longer found.

### Location

menu: veeos ==> math ==> strReplace

library: mathLib

### Example

o_strReplace("I thunk this is an unterestung strung","un","in")

returns "I think this is an interesting string"

### Notes

This objects recursively looks through the string to find and replace strings. Hence it may be possible to have unintended results if one replacement triggers another. In the future may want to rewrite to take this into account.
