I have a spreadsheet containing a column that looks like this:
1 - Apples
2 - Oranges
3 - Bananas
7 - Pineapples
2 - Oranges
1 - Apples
9 - Cherries
...
I am trying to write a script that trims the first 4 characters from each string leaving only remaining "fruit" substring.
Try the bellow pice of code. Adapt it to work with spreadsheets.
function myFunction() {
var column = ["1 - Apples",
"2 - Oranges",
"3 - Bananas",
"7 - Pineapples",
"2 - Oranges",
"1 - Apples",
"9 - Cherries"];
for(var x in column) {
column[x] = column[x].substring(4);
//or
//column[x] = column[x].split(" - ")[1]
}
Logger.log(column);
}
