Is among

Evaluates to true if a chunk is equal to one of the chunks in a string, false otherwise.

Typeoperator Syntax

valueToFind is among the {keys of |paragraphs | sentences | lines | items | words | segments | trueWords | tokens | codePoints | codeUnits | bytes} of stringToSearch

Examples:

"Hello" is among the words of "Hello World" -- evaluates to true

if "Hell" is among the words of "Hello World" then  -- evaluates to false
 answer "there is Hell" 
end if

if "name" is among the keys of Contacts #because contacts is an array
 answer Contacts["name"][1]
end if

Description Use the is among operator to find out whether a string exists as an entire word, item, or line of another string.

The valueToFind must be a single word, item, or line (whichever chunk type you have specified). If you specify a string containing more than one chunk, the is among operator evaluates to false, even if all the chunks are in the stringToSearch.

The is among operator is the logical inverse of the is not among operator. When one is true, the other is false.

is among the bytes should be used to check if a binary strings contains the given bytes.
