Manipulating and searching arrays and lists
Posted: Fri Apr 24, 2015 8:47 am
I should download the latest version, but I'm very hurriedly working on some large project, so haven't had time to look into the latest feature set 
Anyway, I've been fooling around with linked lists and arrays for heavy table / data use, and end up coding some functions myself. I think these would be nice to have in the command set...
- DeleteArrayElement - allows deletion of one element in an array. If the array is multi dimensional, it deletes a whole 'row' (shifting up all remaining data in the array).
- SearchArray - looks for a specific entry in the specified array, returns the position in the array, similar to SortLIst and SortStructuredList, something like: SearchArray( <arrayname> , <offsetoff>, <typeoff>, <whattofind> )
- SearchList - like the one above
- SortStructuredArray - it would be great if I could sort on more than one field, would save a lot of coding
- SortStructuredList - same thing
