I can't figure out the syntax for searching an array of stored words for a string matching an input string. I understand the pseudocode of it, but I'm tripping up over what variables I need to put where, and how they should be formatted. More than happy to provide more details should anyone request them.

Searching In An Array

Feb 15, 2012

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]

Array Searching - Finding Closest Value?

Dec 10, 2008

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.

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?

Searching For Index Of Object In Array?

Jan 30, 2012

I'm trying to search an object array for a particular object and return the index. g always ends up being -1 even though I'm expecting it to be 0. What am I missing?

Private Sub btnX1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnX1.Click
Dim g As SByte = Array.IndexOf(buttons, sender)
MsgBox("If worked: " & g, MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Test")
End Sub
dim buttons() as object = {btnX1, btnX2, btnX3}

Basically, I'm trying to design a function that can get the index of an element from one object array and use that to grab an element from a different array at that same index.

Searching And Finding Strings Inside A 2-Dimensional Array?

Nov 14, 2011

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:

textboxoutput.text = PlayerName & " averaged " & PlayerPoints & " points, " & PlayerAssist &" assist, and " PlayerRebounds " &" rebounds"

So basically, I want it to where the user can enter a basketball players name and display the values for that name.

Searching The XML String?

Mar 23, 2012

I have a problem when searching an XML string. The problem is that I can't get it to work. I have a big XML in a string, and I only need 2 values that are each in seperate elements. It is hard to explain so it's best I just show it.This is my XML: (sorry it's very long, but I want it to be complete so my question can be answered properly).

<transactions result="1">
<transaction raisewarning="false" result="1" location="temporary">
<header>

[code]....

For each <transaction> I need the value of <Number> that is in <Header> and the value of <invoicenumber> in <line (id=1)> ... I have colored the elements in my sentence the same as I colored them in my big XML?The number of <transaction>'s can vary for each XML (these are a webservice response).I've been looking for 2 days now, and I can't seem to grasp this XML stuff unfortunately.

I have it in a string, what I need to do is search for a numeric pattern within the string such as:I looked into regex a bit, but I don't have much time to read deep into it (my company needs the program this week) and it seems too complex to grasp in such a short time. What I've came across so far is:

If (rec.address1 Like "###-##-####")

but I don't know if this will filter it out of the string (it can appear with an address attached to it).

Return To Start Of A String For Searching?

Feb 1, 2010

I'm sure but can't see the answer. Currently going through a string "DO While Not ts_IN.AtEndOfStream" looking for information. This includes then checking another string (while inside the first) for matching reference point for further data.

So within the first loop, I have a second loop "Do While Not ts_IN2.AtEndOfStream". And looping through that string searching for the reference point.

This works initially, but after awhile don't find anything because it is not going back to the start of ts_IN2 string each time loops on the first section.
