Double rotation

Question

Challenge Description

Cycle all letters from the first part of the alphabet in one direction, and letters from the second half of the alphabet in the other. Other characters stay in place.

Examples

1: Hello world

Hello_world //Input
Hell     ld //Letters from first half of alphabet
    o wor   //Letters from second half of alphabet
     _      //Other characters
dHel     ll //Cycle first letters
    w oro   //Cycle second letters
     _      //Other characters stay
dHelw_oroll //Solution

2: codegolf

f cde gl

3.: empty string

(empty string) //Input
(empty string) //Output

Input

String you need to rotate. May be empty. Does not contain newlines.

Output

Rotated input string, trailing newline allowed
May be written to the screen or returned by a function.

Rules

No loopholes allowed
This is code-golf, so shortest code in bytes solving the problem wins
Program must return the correct solution

Remind me, what letters are from the first half of the alphabet, what letters are from the second? — user48538, Sep 5, 2016 at 14:14

Explanation

Generate a list of the letters of the alphabet of both cases. ['Aa','Bb', ..., 'Zz']

Ðžn2äø€J

Split into 2 parts and store a copy in the register.

2ä©

Extract the letters from the input that are a part of the 1st half of the alphabet, rotate it and store in X.

`ŠÃÁU

Extract the letters from the input that are a part of the 2nd half of the alphabet, rotate it and store in Y.

ÃÀV

Main loop

v                         # for each char in input
 ®`                       # push the lists of first and second half of the alphabet
   yåi                    # if current char is part of the 2nd half of the alphabet
      Y¬?                 # push the first char of the rotated letters in Y
         ¦V               # and remove that char from Y

Javascript (ES6), 155 142 138 bytes

s=>(a=[],b=[],S=s,R=m=>s=s.replace(/[a-z]/gi,c=>(c<'N'|c<'n'&c>'Z'?a:b)[m](c)),R`push`,a.unshift(a.pop(b.push(b.shift()))),s=S,R`shift`,s)

Edit: saved 3 4 bytes by using unshift() (inspired by edc65's answer)

How it works

The R function takes an array method as its parameter m:

R = m => s = s.replace(/[a-z]/gi, c => (c < 'N' | c < 'n' & c > 'Z' ? a : b)[m](c))

It is first used with the push method to store extracted characters in a[] (first half of alphabet) and b[] (second half of alphabet). Once these arrays have been rotated, R() is called a second time with the shift method to inject the new characters in the final string.

Hence the slightly unusual syntax: R`push` and R`shift` .

Demo

let f =
s=>(a=[],b=[],S=s,R=m=>s=s.replace(/[a-z]/gi,c=>(c<'N'|c<'n'&c>'Z'?a:b)[m](c)),R`push`,a.unshift(a.pop(b.push(b.shift()))),s=S,R`shift`,s)

console.log("Hello_world", "=>", f("Hello_world"));
console.log("codegolf", "=>", f("codegolf"));
console.log("HELLO_WORLD", "=>", f("HELLO_WORLD"));

Save 1 more byte avoiding a comma a.unshift(a.pop(b.push(b.shift()))) — edc65, Sep 6, 2016 at 15:00

 else:r+=i
for i in r[::-1]:

 else:l=i+l
print l

Best i could do. Takes the string from STDIN and prints the result to STDOUT.

alternative with 204 Bytes, but unfortunatly prints a newline after each char:

x=input()
y=lambda i:'`'<i.lower()<'n'
z=lambda i:'m'<i.lower()<'{'
f=filter
u=f(y,x)
d=f(z,x)
r=l=""
for i in x[::-1]:
 if z(i):l=d[0]+l;d=[i]
 else:l=i+l
for i in l:
 a=i
 if y(i):a=u[-1];u=[i]

JavaScript (ES6), 144

Using parseInt base 36 to separate first half, second half and other. For any character c, I evaluate y=parseInt(c,36) so that

c '0'..'9' -> y 0..9
c 'a'..'m' or 'A'..'M' -> y 10..22
c 'n'..'z' or 'N'..'Z' -> y 23..35
c any other -> y NaN

So y=parseInt(c,36), x=(y>22)+(y>9) gives x==1 for first half, x==2 for second half and x==0 for any other (as NaN > any number is false)

First step: the input string is mapped to an array of 0,1 or 2. Meanwhile all the string characters ar added to 3 arrays. At the end of this first step the array 1 and 2 are rotated in opposite directions.

Second step: the mapped array is scanned, rebuilding an output string taking each character from the 3 temporary arrays.

s=>[...s].map(c=>a[y=parseInt(c,36),x=(y>22)+(y>9)].push(c)&&x,a=[[],p=[],q=[]]).map(x=>a[x].shift(),p.unshift(p.pop(q.push(q.shift())))).join``

Less golfed

s=>[...s].map(
  c => a[ y = parseInt(c, 36), x=(y > 22) + (y > 9)].push(c) 
       && x,
  a = [ [], p=[], q=[] ]
).map(
  x => a[x].shift(),  // get the output char from the right temp array
  p.unshift(p.pop()), // rotate p
  q.push(q.shift())   // rotate q opposite direction
).join``

Test

f=
s=>[...s].map(c=>a[y=parseInt(c,36),x=(y>22)+(y>9)].push(c)&&x,a=[[],p=[],q=[]]).map(x=>a[x].shift(),p.unshift(p.pop()),q.push(q.shift())).join``

function update() {
  O.textContent=f(I.value);
}

update()

<input id=I oninput='update()' value='Hello, world'>
<pre id=O></pre>

A better variation on the theme:

import re
def u(s,p):x=re.split('(?i)([%s])'%p,s);x[1::2]=x[3::2]+x[1:2];return ''.join(x)
v=lambda s:u(u(s[::-1],'A-M')[::-1],'N-Z')

ungolfed:

import re
def u(s,p):
    x = re.split('(?i)([%s])'%p,s)  # split returns a list with matches at the odd indices
    x[1::2] = x[3::2]+x[1:2]
    return ''.join(x)

def v(s):
  w = u(s[::-1],'A-M')
  return u(w[::-1],'N-Z')

prior solution:

import re
def h(s,p):t=re.findall(p,s);t=t[1:]+t[:1];return re.sub(p,lambda _:t.pop(0),s)
f=lambda s:h(h(s[::-1],'[A-Ma-m]')[::-1],'[N-Zn-z]')

ungolfed:

import re
def h(s,p):                              # moves matched letters toward front
    t=re.findall(p,s)                    # find all letters in s that match p
    t=t[1:]+t[:1]                        # shift the matched letters
    return re.sub(p,lambda _:t.pop(0),s) # replace with shifted letter

def f(s):
    t = h(s[::-1],'[A-Ma-m]')            # move first half letters toward end
    u = h(t[::-1],'[N-Zn-z]')            # move 2nd half letters toward front
    return u

Quite hard to golf... Here is my proposal:

for($p=preg_replace,$b=$p('#[^a-m]#i','',$a=$argv[1]),$i=strlen($b)-1,$b.=$b,$c=$p('#[^n-z]#i','',$a),$c.=$c;($d=$a[$k++])!=='';)echo strpos(z.$b,$d)?$b[$i++]:(strpos(a.$c,$d)?$c[++$j]:$d);
