I have the string "1245; In#111111; testing, release" and my output should be "11169" 

how to extra these? 

I have tried the below approach but it work only  on the last index. 

x.split(";").last().strip.gsub("In#","")

Assuming the input can have any number of semi-colons but only one # character, this should work:

x.split("#")[1].split(";")[0]

Hi @chandan1048  just wanted to know 

input: "1245; In#111111; testing, release" and output: "11169"  is that my understanding correct?
