Reversing A String And/or An Array

Oct 24, 2007

So for an intro to programming class, we use visual basic, and i have to write a program that reverses the characters in a string. I've written a code that (i think) turns the string into an array, and then used the array.reverse method to reverse the characters.

I feel like my code is correct, but clearly it is not....when i run the program, there are no bugs, but instead of giving me any part of the input string, it returns "System.Char"

I'm a TOTAL beginner, and clearly not very good at this sort of thing, but here's my code for my "reverse" button:

CODE:

I'm open to other methods for reversing strings, but I'd like to stick with this one if at all possible...

Convert String To An Array - Reverse The Order

Sep 10, 2011

I hope that I'm not just overlooking something, but I am really struggling with working with an array. To simplify my issue: Suppose you type out the values: 1 through 5 into a textbox (1 2 3 4 5). I'm looking to convert that string to an array, so that I can reverse the order and then show the new order in the textbox.

.net - Array.Sort() Doesn't Correctly Order Target Array

Apr 13, 2012

I'm using the following code to read in a highscores file with the score written first and the player's name written to the next line, and then display the top 3 scores or fewer if there aren't 3 scores written to the file. A highscores display should have the scores sorted with the highest first so that's what this program tries to implement.

Array.sort() isn't doing a damn thing. In fact, the program's not even reversing the arrays like it should either. I've tested array.sort() this way with the names and scores arrays given explicitly and it works fine. I thought maybe it was still reading the data as string even though it's declared otherwise but it rounds off decimals when I change the array type to Integer so I'm pretty sure it's not that.

I have no idea why reading the data in from a file changes how it's sorted. My teacher didn't understand what was going on either. Does anyone know what's going on here?

Delete Element From Array Where Order Is Important?

Nov 28, 2009

Dim strArray() As String = {"test1", "test2", "test3"}
strArray.SetValue("", 1)
Console.WriteLine(strArray.Length)
Console.ReadKey()

This still leaves me with an empty array value, how can I just delete it or can't I? Do I have to use an arraylist and if so how do I convert an array into an arraylist?

IDE :: Maintaining Array's Order When Deleting A Listbox Item

Jul 24, 2009

I have made an employee list and linked it to an Access database. The initial problem I was having is that in my program I had to link their ID's and names so if you click on an employee in the listbox, his or her's ID would automatically display in the textbox below. Since I did not know how to do so, I decided to make an array and store the ID and names separately while the listbox is being compiled. And so, the form became linked and adding became easy to code.But my problem came in deleting an employee. When deleting the name should be removed from the list, but this is where the order of the arrays messed me up. How do you maintain the order of the array? Here is the code I used. I dimmed 'count' as an integer and it is responsible for keeping that order.[code]You will see Staff_CodeTextBoxes etc. and info_Staff_CodeTextBoxes. etc.These text boxes (not visible to the user) are responsible for holding the data while the array takes the data from it, or adds it's own data to it.

Reversing A TreeNodeCollection?

Apr 1, 2010

I was wondering how it is possible to reverse a TreeNodeCollection. Since it doesn't have an inline reverse function, I've tried several other methods to no avail: everything from copying the nodes into an array (which has a built-in reverse function), reversing it, and then copying it back into the TreeNodeCollection to using a custom reversing algorithm. Nothing has succeeded.

[Code]...

Any ideas as to why, or how, additional nodes are being added? It doesn't make sense to me as to why that would happen. All I'm doing is changing the values of nodes that already currently exist.Edit: In addition to this method, another possible way to approach it would be to sort the treeview in reverse order in the first place (I think by using an ICollection, or possibly IComparer?), but I've no idea how to accomplish this. I'm not even sure where to start regarding using an ICollection to sort the nodes in a custom fashion.

Way To Order A List Of String

Jun 25, 2012

I have a list(of list(of string)) in vb.net which is a list that contains lists that have 5 string list items in them.

I want to sort the lists by the second item in the contained lists but I don't know what parameter is needed in the .sort method. What do I need to put in as a parameter. I read something about writing a comparer function and putting that in the brackets but I don't understand how that works.

I have a list of strings lets say the items are like this:
item_1

Somehow I need to get these in order numerically but I am dealing with strings not numbers.

VS 2008 Bitwise Operation (Reversing Bits)?

Feb 16, 2011

I have written a simple VB.net application which saves information to an RFID tag. I am now trying to compress my data. The solution I have come up with involves bitwire operation.Basically I store 2 numbers per 1 byte (0-9, 10 being a period, 12 possibly being a negative/positive flag,13,14,15 unused as of yet).The code I am using basically shifts the byte containing a number left, 4 spaces, then 'OR's it against another number.Therefore 12 is now represented as 00010010. The problem i'm having is decompressing. Obviously getting the '1' back is easy, as I just shift right 4, then grab it. I need to append or remove the last 4 bits.My solution after many headaches was to reverse the bit order, shift left 4, then reverse, then tostring it.

Grab Different Pieces Of A String To Place Them In A Different Order In A List?

Oct 7, 2009

I seem to have a huge issue right now trying to grab different pieces of a string to place them in a different order in a list. Unfortunately i can't just find the placeholders for the strings and extract the data that way so i was using indexOf to find commas in the string provided. the problem i'm having is that i can assign the first comma and extract 0 - "," but i'm stuck on how to progress the indexof so it will move through the string submitting everything between the comma's.

Sort String - Arranging Line In Ascending Order

Sep 7, 2009

I have a line like this
18N694 P321 117461, 50374 50MIL;
XTAL_X1 P253 116711, 66524 39MIL;
HR_ICH_HUB_CLK66_R P1567 109761, 68424 39MIL;
P64H2_CLK66_R P2177 110161, 68424 39MIL;
CPLD_NET2 P1151 4711, 90424 75MIL;
V3_3_MGMT_PWR_RST# P3482 4711, 90024 100MIL;

From the above line I have to look the last word MIL. Then I need to arrange the line in ascending orders according to 30MIL,50MIL, 75MIL and 100MIL. Can I use IComparer? Because here I dont know how I can reach the word MIL and sort.
