How do i copy a specific word/number from a TXT file using Batch?

I need to search for a specific nubmer that comes after a string in a text file. For example I have this data:

yyy = 80rr, xxx = 136rr, zzz = 95rr

and i want to copy the numbers that between yyy and rr, xxx and rr, zzz rr.

Then I want to echo these numbers. Is it possible?

@echo off

for /F "delims=" %%a in (input.txt) do set "line=%%a"
set /A "%line:r=%"

echo yyyyyyy = %yyyyyyy%
echo xxxxxxx = %xxxxxxx%
echo zzzzzzz = %zzzzzzz%

For example:

C:\> type input.txt
    yyyyyyy = 80rr, xxxxxxx = 136rr, zzzzzzz = 95rr

C:\> test.bat
yyyyyyy = 80
xxxxxxx = 136
zzzzzzz = 95

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
FOR /f "tokens=3,7delims=r " %%a IN (q28193214.txt) DO (ECHO "%%a" and "%%b")

GOTO :EOF

I used a file named q28193214.txt containing your data for my testing.

What is your batch environmen? In an unix shell with awk this can be done easily:

echo "yyy = 80rr, xxx = 136rr, zzz = 95rr" | 
   awk '{ match($0, /yyy = ([0-9]*)rr, xxx = ([0-9]*)rr, zzz = ([0-9]*)rr/, a); print a[1] " " a[2] " " a[3]; }'
