Searching Byte Array For Existence Of Another One?
Apr 2, 2009
I need to search a Byte array for the existence of another Byte array. The first array is large, about 30,000 bytes and the second varies but is usually between 300 and 500 bytes. I need to know the start position of the second array inside the first. For example if these were the arrays:
Code:
Array 1 Array 2
00
34
00
23 23
00 00
64 64
00 00
41 41
00
45
92
33
I would need to know the start position is 3.
Code:
For x = 0 To UBound(Array1)
If Array1(x) = Array2(0) And Array1(x + 1) = Array2(1) And Array1(x + 2) = Array2(2) Then
' Found it
End If
Next
And loop through finding it by brute force but array 2 will be a different size on each system so doing the above, although I could make it work, isn't practical. I could even do multiple if's like if I find the first byte then find the second, then find the third, and make it a little more bearable but still. Is there a simple way to find a array inside another array?

is there is any direct method or function in array class that can check if any given byte array is a subarray of other array?or should i loop through the each byte of main array to see if smaller array exists in that or not?

I have 2 byte arrays. I want to merge these two byte array into 1 byte array.Usually, I just create a new byte array with length = byte array #1 + byte array #2. Then copy byte array #1 and #2 to the new byte array.do I have more efficient way to merge 2 byte array using VB.NET and .Net 4?

I have a byte array that I convert into a string like so Dim byt As Byte() = New Byte(255) {} s = New String(Encoding.ASCII.GetChars(byte))My question is when I look at the string in a debuger its clearly a normal string but when I compare it to what I know its supposed to be it doesnt equal. So i did a quick check and for some reason its return a string thats the length of 256 characters. So i did a s.trim and it still is 256 characters long.

given my code below, I'm trying to figure out how to create an array of 1 byte containing 7 bits. So the byte in the array would contain 0111111 to correspond to mData_Out's boolean values. How would I change the following code? [Code]

I am trying to get a count of all the times a byte sequences occurs in another byte sequences. It cannot however re-use a bytes if it already counted them. For example given the string let's assume the byte sequence was k.k it would then find only 3 occurrences rather than 5 because they would be broke down like: [k.k].[k.k].[k.k]. and not like [k.[k].[k].[k].[k].k] where they over lap and essentially just shift 2 to the right.
Ideally the idea is to get an idea how a compression dictionary or run time encoding might look. so the goal would be to get down to just 2 parts, as (k.k.k.) is the biggest and best symbol you can have.
Here is source so far:

I didn't think it fair to post a comment on Fredrik Mörk's answer in this 2 year old post, so I thought I'd just ask it as a new question instead..NB: This is not a critiscm of the answer in any way, I'm simply trying to understand this all before delving into memory management / the marshal class.
In that answer, the function GetByteArray allocates memory to each object within the given array, within a loop.Would the GetByteArray function on the aforementioned post have benefited at all from allocating memory for the total size of the provided array:
Dim arrayBufferPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(<arrayElement>) * <array>.Count)
I just wonder if allocating the memory, as shown in the answer, causes any kind of fragmentation? Assuming there may be fragmentation, would there be much of an impact to be concerned with? Would allocating the memory in the way I've shown force you to call IntPtr.ToInt## to obtain pointer offsets from the overall allocation pointer, and therefore force you to check the underlying architecture to ensure the correct method is used*1 or is there a better way? (ToInt32/ToInt64 depending on x86/64?)
*1 I read elsewhere that calling the wrong IntPtr.ToInt## will cause overflow exceptions. What I mean by that statement is would I use:
Dim anOffsetPtr As New IntPtr(arrayBufferPtr.ToInt## + (loopIndex * <arrayElementSize>))
I've read through a few articles on the VB.Net Marshal class and memory allocation; listed below, but if you know fo any other good articles I'm all ears![URL]..

The following image or RTF file illustrates how I'm trying to transform an input Byte array into an output array of Booleans. This is basically what I have listed below. figure out how to get from one array to the next while shifting values of bytes within 8 byte groupings to shift low order to high order or vica versa. What I mean by that is best seen by looking at the illustration of actual input an required output. The reason for this is that the hardware devices have registers and the display which can be seen in the links above needs to convey the disabled sensor cable cell locations.

The code below contains the actual data I receive as input and the required output to send to a hardware device. The application requires incoming boolean values be processed in sets of 8, corresponding to their resultant Byte value. The first incoming boolean value must assume the least significant position of the resultant Byte Value. False, False, True, True, True, True, True, True will result in a Byte Value of 252 if viewing the resultant Byte value in the debugger. Those boolean values will be reversed in order to become True, True, True, True, True, True, False, False. What I can't figure out below is how to accomplish this in the form of masking or shifting the values to accomplish this.

I am learning about the search capability in an array. I wrote a code that stores three names (first & last) and I want to:
- Make the user select a number (from 1-3) by using a (combobox)
- If the user select the proper number then a message will appear that the name is there.
- If not then an error message will appear.
I did all I could by creating this but my main problem is in the (ButtonFind). I went through lots of tutorials and this is what I came up with and I hope that my code is correct.[code]

Say I have an array of doubles sorted from smallest to largest. What is the FASTEST way to find the closest value in the array that is LARGER/SMALLER than the search value if an identical value is not found.
Code:
dim myArray() as double = {1.245, 2.45, 3, 4.556, 5.4434}
'LARGER AND SMALLER SEARCH for 3 should obviously return 3 because its in the array.
'LARGER SEARCH for 2.46 should return 3 because it is the closest LARGER value
'SMALLER SEARCH for 2.46 should return 2.45 because it is the closest SMALLER value
I certainly can do this on my own, but I am looking for the fastest way.
