CRDC Wildcard Searching
The following wildcard methods can be used when searching for courses within the CRDC Tool:
The CRDC tool is available for the 2017-2018 and 2020-2021 versions.
Wildcard or Pattern | Intended Usage | Standard Examples |
|---|
% | Zero or more characters | % at the beginning of or surrounding a character string will return strings in which the criteria is contained:
%06 and %06% will both return 114680633, 062839, and 8906.
%man and %man% will both return Goodman, Hermandson, and Mansfield.
%Math and %Math% will both return 100341 Elementary Math, Exploratory Math Lab, Mathematics 1293.
% at the end of a character string will return the same results as entering the string by itself:
Math% will return Math
12345% will return 12345 |
_
underscore | One character | __ at the end of a character string will return strings with the equivalent number of characters at the end of the string:
X__ (two underscores) will return Xen, Xao
Ander__ (three underscores) will return Anderson, Andersen
___ before/between characters will return strings matching the criteria:
_L_e_ will return results that start with L and have e as the third character, like Lee, Luestrom
___ between two character strings will return the same results as a space:
Olson_Zierke and Olson Zierke return the same results |
[ ]
brackets around values | A range of possible characters | [ ] around a character string will return strings containing any of the criteria specified within the brackets:
A[ck] will return results starting with A c and Ak, like Ackerman, Akerman, Ackton
1[123] will return results starting with 11, 12 and 13 like 11053,12949801, 13
(Adding % at the end of the string is not necessary) |
^ | Negation of character/string | ^ omits strings that contain the specified criteria:
A[^ck]% will return only results that do NOT start with Ac or Ak, like Altman, Aber, Atkinson |
