Definiuję cztery style skrzynek:

+-----+   ooooooo    ^^^^^   *******
|  1  |   o  2  o   <  3  >  *  4  *
|     |   o     o   <     >  *     *
+-----+   ooooooo    vvvvv   *******

Napisz program lub funkcję, która podała liczbę całkowitą, a ciąg znajdzie jedno z powyższych pól w ciągu i zmieni swój styl na styl pola żądany przez użytkownika. Na przykład:

1
This is a test document.
It ********* has
no *purpose* other than
dem*onstrat*ion.
   *********

Staje się:

This is a test document.
It +-------+ has
no |purpose| other than
dem|onstrat|ion.
   +-------+

Możesz założyć, że dane wejściowe zawierają dokładnie jedno prawidłowe pole, co najmniej 3x3. Twój kod musi ignorować niekompletne / niepoprawne pola:

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
o This is not a box. o This is. o
ooooooooooo ooooo ooooooooooooooo

      ^^^^     ######
     <NOPE>    #NOPE#
      vVVv     ######

W przeciwieństwie do pierwszego podejścia, kod ten będzie działał poprawnie tylko dla „prawidłowych” numerów typów - 1, 2, 3 lub 4. Jest podzielony na dwie części - szukacz pudełek i zamiennik pudełek. Kod znajdujący pole, funkcja f(t), używa wyrażenia regularnego, aby zlokalizować wierzchołki, a dla prostszych pól (typy 2 i 4), dna.

Pierwsze wyrażenie regularne to najprostszy sposób, w jaki udało mi się znaleźć blaty. Oto logika tego:

r"([*o]|(\+)|(\ ))(?(2)-|(?(3)\^|\1))+\1"
  ([*o]|(\+)|(\ ))                        < This finds the first corner
        ( 2) ( 3)                         . if a + or space, conditionals
  (    1         )                        . kick in, so they're captured
                                          . separately
                  (?(2)-|           )     < If a +, top edge must be
                                          . at least one -
                         (?(3)\^|\1)      < Otherwise, if a space, top
                                          . edge must be at least one ^,
                                          . otherwise, repeat the corner
                                     +    < Allows more than one top-edge
                                          . character
                                      \1  < finish with the same corner
                                          . char found at the start

Kod jest używany w następujący sposób:

julia> s="""This is a test document.
       It************* has
       no *purpose* other than
       dem*onstrat*ion.
        ************o""";

julia> print(s)
This is a test document.
It************* has
no *purpose* other than
dem*onstrat*ion.
 ************o
julia> print(g(s,1))
This is a test document.
It*+-------+*** has
no |purpose| other than
dem|onstrat|ion.
 **+-------+*o

Drukowanie nie jest zawarte w funkcji, ponieważ format wyjściowy nie jest określony - zwracam tylko ciąg, możesz wydrukować go później, jak pokazano powyżej.
