How do I format a string with Swift in iOS? -

i working on ios swift project takes takes ocr data , searches text key phrases. ocr output looks this:

ingredients water, brown sugar, red ripe

tomato concentrate, apple cidervinegar

w01cestershlwsmjce(waterw4egar corn

syrup, salt, molasse, spice, natural flavor

garlic powder, caramel color, anchovies

cflsril,tamarin0), molasses, lemon juice,

onion, honey, modified tavioca starch,

when search string "corn syrup", nothing found. searching "corn" , "syrup" produce positive results.

i have tried

tesseract.recognizedtext.stringbytrimmingcharactersinset(nscharacterset.whitespaceandnewlinecharacterset())

to no avail.

any thoughts on how format text searching allow "corn syrup" identified? qualifier exact phrase useful - after there corn, corn starch, maple syrup, etc. potential ingredients.

thanks.

ok here solution worked

'textview.text = tesseract.recognizedtext.stringbyreplacingoccurrencesofstring("\n", withstring: " ", options: nsstringcompareoptions.literalsearch, range: nil)'

i thought initial code accomplishing same task.

if want search "corn syrup", need replace new lines spaces (and ideally check double spaces , replace single space).

the quality of character recognition not , think text deserve more maintenance before being used searching. might, example split phrases array of individual strings, trim spaces etc. beginning , end, perhaps use uitextchecker identify misspelled terms , fix them...
