And I could use a little help..
I need to write a short code doing the following: to create a txt file which will contain words from several files (3 inputs). The things is, I have to limit the words so that only words that start and end with an English letter (both upper and lower case) go into the file. Plus, these words have to be limited by length between 0-10 (not including ends).
Also, I want to get the words into an array (each word in a separate cell).

Thanks in advance!

Jess.

We're here to help, but for several reasons we're not here to do the work for you.

Why don't you write a script that gets as close as you can to what you want? If it works, you're done. If it doesn't work and you have a specific question about your script's behavior, post your script (and the content of a few short input files which will help illustrate the problem), along with the actual question.

If you don't know where to begin with this, scroogle these terms:
