How To Find Duplicates In String
Mar 25, 2012
I am trying to find duplicates in a string. The code works more than I would. The purpose is to create a jagged array with values and positions like this one:
myString = "1123464263948465475965069068547363532627281901"
jagged= {{{1},{0,1,42,45}},{{2},{2,7,36,38,40}},{{3},{3,9,31,33,35}},{{4},{4,6,11,13,16,29}},.........}
Value Positions
1 0,1,42,45
2 2,7,36,38,40
3 3,9,31,33,35
4 4,6,11,13,16,29 ......... and so on with unique keys and multiple or not values.
My code do this, but looping all over the string there a moment when it repeats values and positions, because already found them earlier. How do I make to keep just the UNIQUES? How do I skip the loop when the value is already in?
My code below
Public Class Form1
Public myString As String = " "
Public jagged()() As Integer
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
myString = "1123464263948465475965069068547363532627281901"
jagged = New Integer(myString.Length - 1)() {}
[Code] .....

I have to check duplicate records in ArrayList. In ArrayList each item should have atleast 2 times before insert new Item. Per example
Example 1:
AL(0) = '1'
AL(1) = '1'
AL(2) = '2'
[Code]....
Method has to return = 'false', because '2' has 1 time in the list. So I dont
want insert '3' in ArrayList and return false.

I have searched high and low for a solution yet still no luck, I have two arraylists populate with FileInfo and I want to compare the two and write the duplicate (matching files) to a listbox.Here is how I have populated the arraylists but in terms of the comparison I have not found anything that works:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim arraylist1 As ArrayList
Dim arraylist2 As ArrayList
[code]....
What can I do next to compare the two and write the duplicates to ListBox1.

This is my problem: I have an array with dates in it and I want a list with the dates and how much that date is sequel to the amount of that dates in the array.
This is my code so far:
arrsVerschillendeDagen(iTellerke) is declared on moduleniveau
arriMaand(iTellerke) is declared on moduleniveau
arriJaar(iTellerke) is declared on moduleniveau
I have a subroutine too that redimension my arrays.
Private Sub FillArray()
For iCounter As Integer = 0 To arriDag.Length - 1
arrsVerschillendeDagen(iCounter) = arriDag(iCounter) & "/" & arriMaand(iCounter) & "/" & arriJaar(iCounter)
Next
'result: 14/10/2009, 20/12/2009, 20/12/2009, 14/12/2009, 14/12/2009, 14/12/2009

I then need to display the duplicate numbers in an adjacent listbox by clicking the find duplicates button. How would I be able to access those 20 numbers in order to find the duplicates?

I have for-next loop that loops 6 times around before exiting. Each time it loops it adds a small number and a space to a string so I end up with a string containing 6 numbers separated by spaces. Whats ends up happening is I get "555 555 666 666 777 777" when I should get "444 555 666 777 888 999". I know for sure it isn't the code that generates or applies the numbers because when you put a messagebox.show at the end of the loop it works perfectly, so it seems to me something is happening to quickly but showing the message box every loop gives it time to catch up. What can I do here?

I want to remove duplicate values from a string using VB.NET. If values = "3,40,15,109,15" then I need the end result to be "3,40,15,109". I'm using the code below but receiving the error message 'Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String' and I'm not sure how to proceed.
Dim values As String
values = lblIDList.Text
'Remove duplicates
values = RemoveDuplicates(values)
[code]....
Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String'.

I have a string array Array1 and a string array A2. I want to combine these in a 3rd array A3 but excluding duplicate values. Can this be done through lambda expressions or only through iterating through the array and checking array.Contains()?

I have a list box with groups of people and is displayed as such:
Paul Mary John
Frank Steve Bill
Jacob Dan Spongebob
and so on...
If i use the code below i can find and auto highlight Paul, Frank, Jacob but never finds anyone after the first like Mary, or Bill.
Dim findperson As String
findperson = CStr(TextBox1.Text)
ListBox1.SelectedIndex = ListBox1.FindString(findperson)
Essentially it is for quick reference for people to find who will be in their groups.

I need to return everything between the 2 dashes:
"xxx-12345-xxx"
Here's my conditions:
Sometimes the middle part may contain more than 5 characters, so it could look like this: "xxx-12345AB-xxx" Sometimes there's no second dash, so a string could look like this: "xxx-12345"

I have a string, and I want to search it for multiple strings, which I basically want to use for searching for urls in an HTML file that's been loaded into a string.
so get the value of everything between
href="http:// and the next " and return it (I want to check each one separately and do different things with them, so maybe add them to an array that I can loop through?)
preferably simple short code than highly functioning code
