In manipulating data in Flash, which data format gives faster speeds in terms of searching and manipulation, XML or nested associative arrays? Meaning I currently send data in strings into the Flash client (I don't want to load an XML file) but I'm not sure if formatting the data into an XML file or into nested associative arrays is bett...
I'll attempt to illustrate this with an example. Take a common example of a Hash of Hashes: my %HoH = ( flintstones => { lead => "fred", pal => "barney", }, jetsons => { lead => "george", wife => "jane", "his boy" => "elroy", }, simpsons => { lead => "homer",...
I'm looping through an associative array with a foreach. I'd like to be able to check if the key value pair being handled is the last so I can give it special treatment. Any ideas how I can do this the best way? foreach ($kvarr as $key => $value){ // I'd like to be able to check here if this key value pair is the last // so I can...
I'm trying to access an associative array's key and value from within the same array. If I have 3 pairs in my array. Can I use the value of let's say the values of something and other within the third one another? $gar = array("something" => "something value", "other" => "other value", "another" => something...
ODP.Net exposes the ability to pass Associative Arrays as params into an Oracle stored procedure from C#. Its a nice feature unless you are trying to use the data contained within that associative array in a sql query. The reason for this is that it requires a context switch - SQL statements require SQL types and an associative array p...
User inputs a comma separated string and i d like to make a an associative array out of it as follows : Input : 4,3,3,2,2 Output : Array{"0"=>4,"1"="3","2"=>3,"3"=>2,"4"=>2} I can create an array by input.text.split(","); But I d like to make it an associative array as above, how to do this? Thanks. ...
In PHP, I want to insert into a database using data contained in a associative array of field/value pairs. Example: $_fields = array('field1'=>'value1','field2'=>'value2','field3'=>'value3'); The resulting SQL insert should look as follows: INSERT INTO table (field1,field2,field3) VALUES ('value1','value2','value3'); I have come u...
Hey guys, If I've got this data structure in PHP, what data structure is the best for it in C#? $array = Array( [dummy1] => Array ( [0] => "dffas", [1] => "asdas2", [2] => "asdasda" ), [dummy2] => Array ( [0] => "asdasd", [1] => "sdfsdfs",...
In perl, I could assign a list to multiple values in a hash, like so: # define the hash... my %hash = ( foo => 1, bar => 2, baz => 3, ); # change foo, bar, and baz to 4, 5, and 6 respectively @hash{ 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' } = ( 4, 5, 6 ); Is there any way to do the same in php? In fact, is there even a way to get a slice of an ass...
In computer science, there are two definitions of the word map. The first is as an associative array, a type of container that maps values of one type to values of another type. An example of this is the STL map. The second definition is from functional programming, in which map applies is a function that takes a list and a function, app...
I have the following dictionary in flex, and i d like to sort it by value. Couldn't find any resource. '1'=>2, '0' =>1, '3'=>4 .. Any ideas ? How can i sort this by value ? ...
I have an associative array and while iterating through this array, using foreach loop. Flex is loosing the order. This is so annoying. Why is this happening? How can i avoid this? ...
Another question on SO brought up the facilities in some languages to hash strings to give them a fast lookup in a table. Two examples of this are dictionary<> in .NET and the {} storage structure in Python. Other languages certainly support such a mechanism. C++ has its map, LISP has an equivalent, as do most other modern languages. It...
Is there a function that allows me to determine the number of keys in an ActionScript 2 associative array without iterating over that array? // ascertain the length/size of an associative array var o:Object = new Object(); o["k1"] = "v1"; o["k2"] = "v2"; o["k3"] = "v3"; I'd expect there to be an "o.size" or "o.length" that would retur...
In Php I really often use this one: $conn_sets = array(); $conn_sets['login'] = "aaa"; $conn_sets['pass'] = "bbb"; How to do the same in JAVA 1.6. I tried to do this: private method1() { String[] mystring = new String[] {"login" => "aaa", "pass" => "bbb"}; } But it give's me an error. I want to make this work, because I hav...
My associative array: $arr = array( 1 => "Value1" 2 => "Value2" 10 => "Value10" ); Using the following code, $v is filled with $arr's values foreach($arr as $v){ echo($v); // Value1, Value2, Value10 } How do I get $arr's keys instead? foreach(.....){ echo($k); // 1, 2, 10 } ...
Ive got a large bunch of objects (potentially 1000's) which I need to store in a container. I need to be able to find specific instances in two ways, either by its ID number (64bit unsigned int), or its name (std::string). Generally by ID will be the most common, however in some cases the name is known, but not the ID. std::map can prov...
I have an array which may contain numeric or associative keys, or both: $x = array('a', 'b', 'c', 'foo' => 'bar', 'd', 'e'); print_r($x); /*( [0] => a [1] => b [2] => c [foo] => bar [3] => d [4] => e )*/ I want to be able to remove an item from the array, renumbering the non-associative keys to keep them sequen...
If you have an associative array: Array ( [uid] => Marvelous [status] => 1 [set_later] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 0 ) [op] => Submit [submit] => Submit ) And you want to access the 2nd item, how would you do it? $arr[1] doesn't seem to be working: foreach ($form_state['valu...
When I create a new javascript array, and use an integer as a key, each element of that array up to the integer is created as undefined. for example: var test = new Array(); test[2300] = 'Some string'; console.log(test); will output 2298 undefined's and one 'Some string'. How should I get javascript to use 2300 as a string instead of...
