Kay's is much faster than mine.

Hi Kay, This looks very good mainly the use of case with the decision being the switch... never thought about that. Also, I didn't realize that arrays would be slower... I will test this with some of the data sets ... currently up to 80,000 lines but with values I have indicated... but I like the simplicity. I posted the bigger picture but it got jammed due to size so I just pasted the new info here... The biggest picture would be having 10 lists with each list having the xs column but a different ?t column (wt, gt, st, mt, qt, ... etc) The first and last xs value for each list will always be the same and can start at 10 and go to 100,000+ but other than that there will be randomness in the step increments. The goal would be the same but towards building a master list where each associated column would meet the neighbor criteria with the xs column. You can see the xs column increments grow and the already established column values (in this case wt) get a value of 0 for the new xs increments. Given this and the possible number of columns and values is there still a good approach in using arrays? For example... we see from Pacer List xs wt 10 6 80 7 130 23 we got Master list xs wt 10 6 20 0 this is added 70 0 this is added 80 7 90 0 this is added 120 0 this is added 130 23 Train List xs gt 10 32 40 67 130 55 new master list would be xs wt gt 10 6 32 20 0 0 30 0 0 <-- added to xs updated wt value 40 0 67 <-- added to xs updated wt value 50 0 0 <-- added to xs updated wt value 70 0 0 80 7 0 90 0 0 120 0 0 130 23 55 _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
