One Dimensional Array Contains Nothing But Zero Length Strings?
Jul 28, 2011
The obvious first thought is:
Public Function CheckStrings(ByVal input As String()) As Boolean
For Each s As String In input
If s.Length > 0 Then Return True
Next
Return False
End Function
I'm sure there is a simpler way than that though. At least simpler in terms of the code if not necessarily the performance.
Here's my final code:
<Extension()> _
Public Function AnyNonZero(ByVal value As String()) As Boolean
If Not value.All(Function(x) String.IsNullOrEmpty(x)) Then Return True
Return False
End Function
I am working on arrays and I am currently having trouble with searching and finding arrays. In this example, the user should be able to enter a Name, and it will output that person's stats.
Here is the text file (note, I should be able to go to this text file, add a few more names and the code should still work, which is why I am using loops,arrays,text files instead of if and else statements),
Kobe,29,6,4 Allen Iverson,28,7,4 Jason Kidd,12,10,9
So if the user enters Jason Kidd in the text box, this will display in another text box:
Jason Kidd averaged 12 points, 10 assist, and 9 rebounds.
[Code]...
All right now is the searching part. I really do know how to search for what the user entered and display the statement in a text box. I kind of have an idea of how to just get the name, but for it to get the name and then all the data for that name puzzles me even more.-I tried using .contain, indexof and few others.
I know to display the information in the text box will be something like:
I have a string containing many lines. Each line has many values separated by commas. Basically it's in CSV format. The number of lines is variable but the number of columns is always 7.
I can get each line into a one dimensional array using Split(Var, Chr(10)).
I'd like to make it a two dimensional array where the second dimension contains each comma separated value.
I've got
Dim VarArray1() As String = Split(VarText, Chr(10)) Dim VaryArray2(0 To VarArray1.Length - 1, 0 To 6) As String
Is there a quick way to get the contents of VarArray1 into VarArray2. I know I can do the following.
For Counter = 0 to VarArray1.Length - 1 Dim line as string = VarArray1(Counter) Dim Values() as string = Split(line, ",") For Counter2 = 0 to 6 VarArray2(Counter,Counter2) = Values(Counter2) Next Counter2 Next Counter
But is there a quicker way to do it that doesn't require passing through each element of VarArray1 and then passing through each element of Values.
The eventual goal in all of this will be to find the highest value in the 3rd column (the arrays are strings at this point because not all columns are numeric). To do that once I get the values into VarArray2 I suspect I have to pass through each element VarArray2, i.e. VarArray2(Counter,2). Unless I can copy the whole third column into a SortedList?
I'm generating a list of names from my database, but I need to validate them so they are no longer than 15 characters.
Dim Name As String Dim txtFirst = "../../Names/first.txt" Dim txtLast = "../../Names/last.txt"
[Code]....
I need Name to be no longer than 15 characters, and it doesnt matter if the name stays in tact, it just needs to cut off characters from the end of the string until its 15 or less.
This is related to my last question.Even though Access considers Nulls and zero-length strings (ZLS) separate values, often developers wish to treat them as equivalent for the sake of an If...Then statement or some other stretch of code. One way to accomplish this is to write code like this:
' Not so efficient If IsNull(varAge) or varAge = "" Then ' do something
I want to create a binary file in vb6 which contains variable length strings and which will be read in VB.NET by using BinaryReader. Since BinaryReader requires the variable length strings should be length-prefixed, I have to write them accordingly.
I am having a problem understanding the following error message:
Value of type 1-dimensional array of string cannont be converted to 2-dimensional array of string because the array types have different numbers of dimensions This line seems to be causing the error:
New String((13) - 1) {}
I did a Google search on this but didnt come up with anything useful. I didnt even change the code.I just found this example online and copied/pasted it into a project that Im working on.
All code is listed below!
Calendar.aspx.vb Imports System Imports System.Data
What I need to do is find a string that can be any value, and is placed between ">" and "</" with a minimun length of 5 and a maximum length of 7 and contains exactly 2 dots.
So if I have a text file like this:
<a href="www.site.com">a site</a> text<br /> More test<br />
[Code]....
I want it to find only the 5.0.77. And no, the number isn't always between h2 tags, and the number isn't even always the same. The only thing that is static about it is that is is between ">" and "</" and that it is between 5 and 7 characters and contains 2 dots.
given the following Sub, how would I initialize byte array 'temp'to zeros and give it the length of the incoming byte array passed into the subroutine?
Sub ReceivePacket(ByVal buffer As Byte()) Dim temp() As Byte 'initialize to zeros and length of buffer temp = buffer.Skip(17).ToArray() End Sub
I am working on a code that should capture the color of a pixel in a bitmap and then check if the 8 surrounding pixels have the same color. If the checked surrounding pixel HAS NOT the same color it will be ignored, otherwise if it HAS the same color, it should check for its own 8 surrounding pixels and so on.
To do that, I have created an array that starts with a single entry (the x,y coordinates of the initial pixel). So, when a pixel with the same color is found it is pushed to the end of the array. I used a for each loop supposing that VB would keep looping until the end of my array - and since it is growing, the last position of the array would be always pushed until I have not more pixels to be checked.
The problem is that VB is not respecting it, and is considering my array as if it had just 1 entry. Seems that it catch the size of the array when it enters the loop, and regardless the fact I have pushed new items to the array it doesnt keep looping it.
How can I force VB to update the end of array position while looping it? Although I think it wouldnt be necessary, here it goes the code I have so far...
This adds 1 and 2 to list. My question is why does the first element in the 2d array determines the length of an array and if we want to get the length 2nd index then what will be the method for that?
I developing a roster application (asp.net with VB + sql server) to let user input shift duty record, proposed screen as follows:for the database design, each staff will have one record per day.[code]I want to create a multi dimensional array to bind the gridview.Is that correct that I create a arraylist (for 7 days) and then a subarray for each day? How can I create a 7 dimensional array & sub array under this 7-D array in asp.net + VB ?
I've been working on a VB project where I use a 1st drop down list to select a movie category and then in the 2nd drop menu, movies from that category will be displayed. The movies are stored in a 2-dimensional array by category. I've been able to edit my array but I'm having problems with my .AddRange() function. What would I have to put in those parentheses for the list (for each category) to appear in my 2nd combobox when the category is selected?
I declare 2-dimensional array at class level Dim delItems(9, 9) As String The array elements are then each set to "EMPTY". I create a new form in memory Dim frm As New Form I create a new DataGridView add columns to it and add it to the new form Dim d As New DataGridView frm.Controls.Add(d)
Now the problem.....this code give error when try to load contents of 2-D array into DGV: For i As Integer = 0 To 9 d.Rows.Add() For j As Integer = 0 To 9 d.Item(i, j).Value = delItems(i, j).ToString Next Next
Error is ArgumentOutOfRangeException (Index was out of range...) When I check value of loop control variables, i = 0 and j = 1
For my programm I am supposed to store the minimum points in a five-element, one dimensional integer array name points. And I need to store the grades in a five-element, one dimensional string array named grades. These arrays should be parallel arrays. I am supposed to code the display grades button click event procedure so that it declares both arrays. It also should search the points array for the number of points entered by the user, and then display the corresponding grade from the grades array.
Here is my code: Option Explicit On Option Strict On Option Infer Off Public Class Grades Private Sub exitButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles exitButton.Click [Code] .....
I have an application in VBA that gives to my VB.Net dll one bi-dimensional variant. It is a an array, in which every component is a another array containing two positions.
I want to get this two-position array. When I am using VBA I can access directly the data from each position by doing:dataArray(index, 0) or dataArray(index, 1)And when I want to get the two-position array I can use:
Dim posArray as variant posArray = dataArray(index)
I have a VC++ DLL, which returns the sum of two long double values, passed as one dimensional array?l the right syntax to pass array to this dll from vb.net

Compiling the program in Visual Basic Express produces no errors. However, if the program is imported into the Excel Developer environment; I get the following error: Expected: end of statement with the equal sign highlighted. A side comment: About eight years ago, I wrote a Visual Basic simulation program to study financial trends. I found that version of Visual Basic user frendly! I find the 2010 version very difficult for doing simular projects.
i want to make a vb.net program that reads from a text file a movie, with the help of a Open Dialog (called openFD in my program) (we don't know how many movie we've got), the actors, the release date, the country, and the rating.
First question: How can I make a 2-dimensional array? line(0,0) - Movie1, ... , line (1,5) - Rating2. Here Is my try, but it's not good:
Dim line As ArrayList = New ArrayList() Dim itm As ArrayList = New ArrayList() Dim i As Integer = 0

And here is the code for the Delete Button. It deletes a movie from the listbox, but the details of the deleted movie remains for the next one, I must delete the details for the deleted movie, too.
i'm extremely confused. my professor gave us this as the FIRST problem to do in this intro to VB class...on page 380 of our text. it is due today and i have been up all night trying to figure out where to even start. i'm so frustrated. could someone please help me and steer me in the right direction? use a one dimensional array to solve the following problem: a company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. the sales people receive $200/week, plus 9% of their gross sales for that week. for example, a salesperson who grosses $5,000 in sales in a week receives $200 plus 9% of $5,000, a total of $650. write an application (using an array of counters) that determines how many of the salespeople earned salaries in each of the following ranges (assuming that each salesperson's salary is truncated to an integer amount): $200-299, $300-399, $400-499, $500-599, $600-699, $700-799, $800-899, $900-999 and over $999.
Allow the user to eanter the sales for each employee in a TextBox. The user clicks the Calculate Button to calculate the person's salary. when the user is done entering this information, clicking the Show Totals Button displays how many of the salespeople earned salaries in each of the above ranges.
I'm having trouble with this specific code and on arrays in general. This is what I am asked to do: "In this exercise, code an application that displays the number of students earning a specific score. Declare a 20-element, one-dimensional integer array named intScores with the following 20 numbers assigned to the array: (88, 72, 99, 20, 66, 95, 99, 100, 72, 88, 78, 45, 57, 89, 85, 78, 75, 88, 72, and 88). Code the procedure so that the user can enter a score from 0 to 100. Then the procedure should display using a message box the number of students who've earned that score."
First off, I do not know what I'm doing wrong with my array.. it says there's an error in line 31 saying "variable intSubscript hides a variable in an enclosing block" but I don't know what that means. And lastly, once that is sorted out, I don't know how to code a message box to appear saying how many students have received that score.
