Sorting A New Array From An Existing Array (emergency)
Hi

i got an existing array, main[y], which after an equation, will come out with another array.

Code:
if (main[y] === topicList.getValue()){
subTopic = [];
subTopic = fTitle[y]
trace(subTopic)
}
However, i could not sort the subTopic, as it gkeep giving me undefined. Is there any way to sort this subTopic, such that they are in alphabetical orders?

Appreciate any help.

---Sorting ARRAY-----
Hey guys,

I have the Array (93,101,109,96,94.7,100.5)
So when I sort it it comes out like:

(100.5, 101, 109, 93, 94.7, 96)

In other words it takes the numbers from 100, sort it, and than it takes from 90.

Is there any way to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Olga.

Array Sorting
I'm trying to work out a solution to searching through my xml and separating names out into different lists.
Basically I have a node called name. My problem is I need to separate the names out into arrays like this.

Code:
var A_F:Array = [];
var G_L:Array = [];
var M_R:Array = [];
var S_Z:Array = [];
In my xml load I have the names show up like
[code]
function loadXML(url) {
xmlList = new XML();
xmlList.load(url);
xmlList.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
var rootNode = this.firstChild;
numberOfPioneers = rootNode.childNodes.length;
for (var i = 0; i < numberOfPioneers; i++) {

names.push(rootNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild);
}
trace("names :"+names);
}
};
}
loadXML("photo_list.php");
[code]

The trace("names :"+names);
output like:

Code:
names :Nick Arias,Don Blair,Andy Brizio,Jack Calori,Julian Doty,Jim Nelson,Wally Parks,Robert E. Petersen,Bob and Dick Pierson,Ed Pink,Phil Remington,John Wolf,Alex Xydias
No I need a way to search through the last name and take from var A-F, G-L, M-R, S-Z out and place them in there approperate arrays.
Any help on how I could achive this.

Sorting An Array
I need to sort an array. The array looks like this:

[[2],[a],[1],[d],[3],[e]]

I need the results to look like this

[[1],[d],[2],[a],[3],[e]]

In other words the number value is used to also order the letter value

Thanks

[F8] Help With Sorting Array...
I've set up a gallery that loads a php to pull each image file from a folder and send the result to flash, which then puts them into an array. I have a date portion that is also from php. My problem is in flash, trying to create this array so I can sort by date.
Here is the PHP:

PHP Code:

function returnimages($dirname=".") {
   $pattern=".(jpg|jpeg|JPG|JPEG)$";
   $files = array();
   $curimage=0;
   if($handle = opendir($dirname)) {
       while(false !== ($file = readdir($handle))){
               if(eregi($pattern, $file)){
               $filedate=date ("YmdHis", filemtime($file));
                 echo '{file: "'.$file.'", date: "'.$filedate.'"}'.'.:::.';
                 $curimage++;
               }
       }
       closedir($handle);
   }
   return($files);
}
echo "&loadArray=";
returnimages();

And here is the AS:

PHP Code:

_root.folderPath = "Images/Portfolio/";
var imgCount:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
imgCount.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void  {
    if (success) {
        var gal_str:String = imgCount.loadArray;
        gal_array = gal_str.split(".:::.");
        trace(gal_array);
    } else {
        trace("ERROR");

    }
};
imgCount.load("myphp.php",imgCount,"GET");
stop();

I'm trying to get my array where I can use "sortOn" date. Any suggestions?

[CS3] Array Sorting
I have this sequence of numbers to be sorted:

Quote:

432534,5646,69855,234,1023,69855,12366,123,10339,7 780036,9803,22310,
69855,5633,0023,70002,600020...

when i use Array.NUMERIC | Array.DESCENDING, it sorts in this way:

Quote:

9803,7780036,70002,69855,69855,69855,600020,5646,5 6233,432534,234,22310,12366,123...... and so on

What i actually expect it to do is to sort the numbers in the order of its real value. Something like :

Quote:

7780036,600020,432534,70002,69855,69855,69855,2231 0,12366,10339,9803,5646,5633,234,123,0023

Sorting An Array (again)
I have a few movie clips on the stage and I have named them var1, var2 etc. What I want to do is to have them in an array and I want it to be sorted by depth. Here´s how I do:

Within a for loop i populate the array(sections) and assign the value(lvl) like this:

Code:
for(i=1;i<=4;i++){
this["var"+i].lvl = this["var"+i].getDepth();
sections.push(this["var"+i]);
}
And then I try to sort the array with:

Code:
sections.sortOn("lvl", Array.NUMERIC);
I trace out the array and get:
-16382
-16374
-16358
-16367

Obviously it´s not sorted... any hints?

Sorting An Array
Hey all,

I can't seem to figure out how to sort an array of classes.
What i have is an array of my custom class Person. Person has the property Age. And I have an array of Person instances and I want to sort it by the Age property in a decsending manner.

I read about sortOn and tried

array.sortOn(array.Age, Array.DESENDING | Array.NUMERICAL);

and many other variations but it never worked on the whole array. On an array of 6 instances it would only sort the first 4, and they were Ascending.

So, there must a be a good way of sorting them, i tried a few loop combinations to sort it myself but it's trickier than i thought.

So can anyone please help?

Thanks.

Sorting Array Help
hey guys,

I have three arrays named: grRatio, grAlpha and grColor. They are indexed using movie clips, so grRatio for example is setup like something like this:
grRatio[some_mc]=value;
grRatio[another_mc]=value;

so if I do this:

ActionScript Code:
for (var index in grColor) {
trace(index+" color: "+grColor[index]);
}
for (var index in grAlpha) {
trace(index+" alpha: "+grAlpha[index]);
}
for (var index in grRatio) {
trace(index+" ratio: "+grRatio[index]);
}

This is what what I get in the output window:

Code:
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc3 color: 0x0033CC
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc2 color: 0x66CC99
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc1 color: 0x000000
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc0 color: 0x66FF00

_level0.grad_mc.co_mc3 alpha: 42
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc2 alpha: 82
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc1 alpha: 100
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc0 alpha: 72

_level0.grad_mc.co_mc3 ratio: 96.39
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc2 ratio: 56.61
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc1 ratio: 142.29
_level0.grad_mc.co_mc0 ratio: 195.84
Now what i need to do is take the values from these arrays and create 4 new arrays: "color_arr", "alpha_arr", "ratio_arr" and "movie_arr" and sort them in accending order using the values in the grRatio array.

I know I have to use a couple of for loops, but my tries have not worked so far...help!

Sorting Array
Hi,

I have a problem with sorting my array.
I use an array to load external thumbnails and pictures into my movie.

ActionScript Code:
var img_array = ["tp_01.jpg", "tp_02.jpg", "tp_03.jpg", "tp_04.jpg", "tp_05.jpg", "tp_06.jpg"]

var big_array = ["p01.jpg", "p02.jpg", "p03.jpg", "p04.jpg", "p05.jpg", "p06.jpg"]

I want to sort my thumbnails by number, at this moment when i publish my movie on my system he sort the thumbnails good, however when i publish the movie on my server it has a random order. I think he is loading the thumbnails on KB. I have used the sort function but this doesnt work, i think the sort function wil only work when the images are in the flash movie.

So my question:
How do i sort my external thumbnails in order by number?

Much thx to the person that can help me.

Sorting An Array
Hello all,

I am hoping to start on a small project for school tomorrow and would like to know if it is possible to create a simple 'rankings table' in Flash. All of the numbers that I intend to display will be held as variables within the script (Actionscript 2.0) and so I do not need to use PHP or anything like that to access or store data.

If, for example, I had the following data:

Code:

team1Name:String = "Red Team"; team1Score:Number = 20; team2Name:String = "Blue Team"; team2Score:Number = 10; team3Name:String = "Green Team"; team3Score:Number = 30;

Could I adapt this data and put it in the form of a numerically sorted table? (See below)

Green Team __30
Red Team ____20
Blue Team____10

I was planning to do the following: put the data into an array and then sort the array numerically.

However, I am not sure whether this is possible or whether it would be the most effective way to create the table.

Any help wih the coding or advice that people could offer before I begin the project would be appreciated!

Thanks as always for any help,

David

Specifically Sorting An Array
Hey folks,

Quick question...

I've got an array with several values in it... is there a way I can determine dynamically which value appears the most often in said array? For example:

myArray = new array("2", "4", "1", "7", "6", "4", "2", "3", "2")

As we can see, the value "2" appears the most in the above array... so how can I get Flash to dynamically see it too?

Thanks!

2D Array Sorting? (help Needed)
hello, returning to flash after a looong gap to do a new project. I'm having trouble figuring out how to achieve what i need with arrays.

I'll describe it in terms of a database analogy: what i'd like to do is have a table that holds 2 'fields' for each 'record'. The field would be 'name' (a string) and 'depth' an integer.

What i'd like to then do is sort the records in the table in order of 'depth' (from lowest to highest).

And finally, i'd like to iteratively work through the ordered reords, passing the 'name' and 'depth' values of each record in turn, to a function for processing.

If anyone could provide some sample code i'd be very grateful, this is frying my brain

[MX] Simple (?) Array Sorting
Hi there
I was trying to do what I supposed it would be a simple array sorting, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I have an array with several numerical fields of which I'd like to use three to perform a descending sort. The fields in question are "P", "PF" and "DIF". My intention was to use the "P" field as the main sorting criteria, and if there where two identical values for it, use the "PF" field as a second sorting criteria. Same would apply for the "DIF" value. Here's what I tried:

Code:
matriuClasLLIGA.sortOn( ["P", "PF", "DIF" ] , 18 );

You may see the results here the fields used are those listed in the columns. It doesn't work.
A closer version to my original intention, which sadly (and obviously) doesn't take into account the "PF" and "DIF" values was achieved by using this code
Code:
matriuClasLLIGA.sortOn( "P", 18 );

you may see the results here

Any help would be highly appreciated,

Thanks a lot

I want to set a variable for where to start the randomization
for example: I would set this variable to 3 if I wanted to keep a, b, c in order but randomize d, e, f. If the variable was 0 it would randomize all of them.

any ideas?

var randomNumber:Number;
function randomizeSequence(){

Randomly Sorting An Array In AS 3.0
I am trying to populate an array with numbers 1-n where n is a variable upperLimit (of numbers in a game of Bingo) and then randomise that array (for each new game). In AS 2.0 to populate my array (range) at runtime, I would have used;

Code:
for (i=0; i<upperLimit; ++i) {
range[i] = i+1;
}
trace(i);
How's this achieved nowadays?!!

I'm hard coding the array (seems painful!) and here's the rest of my code

Code:
var range:Array = new Array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15);

var a:Array = range;

function shuffle(a,b):int {
var num : int = Math.round(Math.random()*2)-1;
return num;
}

var b:Array = a.sort(shuffle);
trace(b);

Also I know this is a much discussed topic in AS 2.0. What is your opinion on the best way to execute this in AS 3.0?

Appreciate any comments and help!

Sorting Array Question
I'm trying to sort two arrays based on thier -x position, I got the sort method code from foundation actionscript but I must be missing something because it's not working. Does anyone have any idea what? I've tried searching the forums but couldn't find anything...

ActionScript Code:
//sort arrays function
function sortX(element1, element2) {
if (element1._x<element2._x) {
return -1;
} else if (element1._x>element2._x) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
//
createSentence = function () {
for (g=0; g<usedWord.length; g++) {
name = usedWord[g];
if (Number(_root[name]._y)<40) {
row1.push(name);
} else {
row2.push(name);
}
}
row1.sort(sortX);
row2.sort(sortX);
};

Sorting An Array Of Dates
Hi folks,

If anyone can point me in the direction of a way to sort an array of dates, I would be most grateful.

e.g. array containing 19/06/2004,15/05/2004,17/05/2004,08/05/2003 sorted to result in 08/05/2003,15/05/2004,17/05/2004,19/06/2004

Thank you

Quick Array Sorting Help.
Hi All.

Was just wondering if someone could help me out with a sorting function.

I have an array 'EventData'

Within 'EventData' are objects:
{_subject, _start, _end}

_start and _end are both Date Objects, and what I need to do is sort the array by the _start & _end dates (date and Time)

Kinda confusing to describe here, but this is how it would need to end up.

Dates with a _end greater than _start
Dates where _start == _end & same Time
Dates with same Dates and _start time is greater than _end Time

Could anyone help?

Cheers.

Sorting An Array Of Objects
I know this is probably really easy to do but I'm just stuck... someone plz help me along.. I have an function that accepts an Array of objects and sorts them according to a property that holds a numerical number. However, I don't know what to add exactly so that once the object with the highest property is chosen, it wont be rechosen again.... here is my code...

Code:
function SortBySpeed(array){
var return_order = new Array()
var highestindex = 0
for(var i=0;i<array.length;i++)
{ var highest = 0;
for(var k = 0;k<array.length;k++){
if(array[k].speed > highest){
highestindex = k
highest = array[k].speed
}
}
return_order[i] = array[highestindex]
// i dont know what to put here!!!
}
return return_order
}

vLineArray.sortOn(_x, Array.ASCENDING | Array.NUMERIC);

Can anyone suggest how I can make this work?

Thanks!

Randomly Sorting An Array
Okay, I have a string array that contains answers to multiple questions. In my example data I'm working with, there are always 3 responses in the array. I want to write them out to the screen in random order, since when the array is created the "correct" answer is always array position 0 (ie, the first one).

The array is called "responsesArray". I was using the attached code to try to create a new array called "sortedResponsesArray".

It APPEARED to be working, but then I noticed that it seemed like the first answer was the correct answer an inordinate amout of times. So I did some testing by running it over and over a couple of hundred times, and in fact it does not appear to be returning random results. The first position in sortedResponsesArray IS in fact the correct answer way too often for it to be random. It appears to be about a 25-5-1 ratio. Ie, if I run it 31 times, 25 times the correct answer will be in the first position of sortedResponsesArray, 5 times the correct answer will be in the second position in sortedResponsesArray, and 1 (or maybe 2) times the correct answer will be in the third position in sortedResponsesArray. It's not an EXACT ratio, but it's close to that...

Just wondering if anyone can see anything wrong with my sorting logic and/or can suggest anything better..

Thanks!
Mike

Attach Code

Given this as some example data, the real data comes from an XML file:
responsesArray[1] = "The right answer";
responsesArray[2] = "A wrong answer";
responsesArray[3] = "Another wrong answer";

function shuffle(responsesArray,sortedResponsesArray):Number {
var num : Number = Math.round(Math.random()*2)-1;
return num;
}

var sortedResponsesArray:Array = responsesArray.sort(shuffle);

I then do a simple loop through sortedResponsesArray to output the answers to the screen...

Sorting Multidimensional Array
I have an array of objects (the first member of each object is a string which records the object's name) The other members of the objects contain various numerical information. I need to sort each category of information and display the names next to their related information in correct numerical order:
ie. AName 4235
AnotherOne 3962
OneMore 1576

Can anyone suggest some code which would do this? I checked out .sort and .onSort, built in methods of array but I can't get my head round it.There are thirteen objects in my array. The fourth element (population) needs to be sorted. I tried
x=0;
for (i=0;i<14;i++) {//counts through objects in array
if ( EmpireList [i] [3] >x)
x= EmpireList [i] [3];//loops through array to find greatest numerical value
} //and writes it into x
LargestInArray = x;

This gave me the biggest numerical element in the array. I figured I needed some kind of nested for loop to find the next largest and so on but I can't get it to work.

Ideally I need to copy the information into a new array with two dimensions (for name and information)

Thanks

for (var i=0; i<sectionRow.length; i++){
var item_obj = this.createEmptyMovieClip ("item_holder"+i, i);
item_obj._x = 120;
item_obj._y = 145;
var holder_obj = item_obj.attachMovie ("section_item_mc", "section_item_mc"+i, i)
holder_obj._x = 0;
holder_obj._y = 7 + ((holder_obj._height * i)+3);
holder_obj.item_txt.text = sectionRow[i][1];
}
}
