I have a 2D array which holds 5 students and two test results. I have initialised my array as studentTestResults(4,1) However, I am looking for a sorting algorithm which will displays the students in order of combined results when the user clicks "sort results". I have had a hard look around the net, but finding a bubble sort for a 2D array is difficult, especially as my knowledge is minimal.

I have an array of structure and need to sort it using selection sort. I have to sort the array by the last name field in ascending order (A to Z). I dont understand how to use the selection sort method.

I am using VB.NET and I am trying to come up with some algorithm or some pseudo-code, or some VB.NET code that will let me do the following (hopefully I can explain this well):I have 2 collection objects, Cob1 and Cob2. These collection objects store objects that implement an interface called ICob. ICob has 3 properties. A boolean IsSelected property, a property called Length, which returns a TimeSpan, and a Rating property, which is a short integer.
OK, now Cob1 has about 100 objects stored in the collection and Cob2 is an empty collection. What I want to do is select objects from Cob1 and copy them over to Cob2. I want the following rules obeyed when selecting the objects though:

I am struggling to write a sorting algorithm that can sort characters in a word lexicographically (alphabetically) as follows
lexicographical sort of the word :- Contamination

Sorted Text Index
[code]....
write a pseudo code / or an implementation in C# or VB.NET of how I can do a lexicographical sort of the word above?
Sub Sort()
ReDim RollsCC(NumOfPlayers - 1)
For N As Integer = 0 To (NumOfPlayers - 1)[code]....
Here I am creating a temp single dimensional array, merging my 2d array into it, and then attempting to sort it by Rolls(N,1), which is a integer 1-6, Everything seems to be working right with the exception of this.
RollsCC.Sort(RollsCC, 0, 1)
How would one specify a numeral sort based on the first character in the string? im aware that I am switching Rolls(n,1) and Rolls(n,0) information during the sort.
I want to sort string-arrays containing filenames in VB .NET 2002 using the same intelligent algorithm that windows explorer uses. I mean the algorithm that is able to recognize numbers within the filename and sorts the parts the look like a number as numbers and the rest of a filename as text. The result would be something like this[code]...Sort filenames using Windows Explorer algorithm?
View 3 RepliesI am using the Array type .Sort function to sort my array.By default it places the result Array into Ascending order Least to Greatest How do I change that to Descending order Greatest to Least?and How do I change it to Closest to logic? or does that not exist?Assume there is an Array of Numbers 0,13,21,-2,4,5,1.34 and I want them to sort closest to 0 or some other arbitray value; the Output should look similar to:
0,1.34,-2,4,5,13,21
Lets say I have declared an array by doing:
dim array()
Also have a variable:
dim loopsize = 10
Then i do this:
for loop = 1 to loopsize
array(loop) = 5
next
What i wanted to do with this is from array(1) through to array(10), the values will be changed to 5. But vb will not allow this and crashes.
Why doesn't this work and how can i make it work?
I've learned about and understand HOW to do a bubble sort (theoretically), but I can't seem to wrap my head around how to use a bubble sort with array structures. I'm supposed to be able to sort the inputted student information (via textfile) using bubble sort and display the result in a listbox. Buttons for Sort by last name, sort by gpa, & sort by letter grade.

I am trying to implement Selection Sort in vb.net using recursion. Problem is that I keep getting stackoverflow if the array I want to sort is 1000 elements. I can't find the problem. I don't know much about stack overflow or how to check it. From my research the problem could be infinite recursion but I check for that and exit the sub.Here is the main code:
Public Class SelectionSort
Inherits DefaultSort
Public Sub New(ByVal num As Integer)
[code]...
Everything should work as far as I know. It works on an array of 10 elements and an array of 100 elements.
I have an array of words that must be sorted alpabetically using selection sort, I must then be able to search the array with a binary search. I just can't get my head around how you would go about doing it. I know that the words must be first sorted into alphabetical order. Here is the code for selection sort with numbers:
Dim pass As Integer
Dim count As Integer
Dim minmax As Integer
Dim temp As Integer
[code]....
How would you apply that to an array of strings?
I am using VB.net.I am importing a text file into Excel. Then I want to select everything and sort it based on a cell (A) in this case. So here is what I have so far.
Code:
xlApp.Workbooks.OpenText(sDump, , 1, , XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, , , , True)
xlSheetData = xlApp.ActiveSheet
rng = xlSheetData.UsedRange
rng.Sort(rng.Range("A2"), XlSortOrder.xlAscending)
It works but the problem is the direction that the sort is happening. Everything is being sorted horizontally. I want to Sort it by the selected Column.

I'm trying to sort an array based on a structure but whenever I do this, it basically erases all the data in the entire array.I have verified that the array is populated correctly, it is when using array.sort that everything returns blank.
View 6 RepliesI'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?

View 10 RepliesI need to sort an array containing a list of words and search the same using binarysearch. For certain reasons, the word-list must always be sorted using the sorting-rules of "en-US" i.e. American Regional Settings. The code will run under various international Operating Systems and of course this will mean that the word-list will be sorted differently according to the local Regional Settings in use. One problem could arise on a computer/device running with Lithuanian Regional Settings. Why? Because the letter "Y" in most languages is sorted like X-Y-Z while in Lithuanian, the sort order is I-Y-J. This behavior would create havoc to my program.

However, in means of flexibility I believe Guffa's answer is the best one. Why? Let's use another example:In German, the letter Ö is sorted Ö-X-Z while in Swedish and Finnish, the order is X-Z-Ö. In Estonian the sort order is Z-Ö-X. Complicated, isn't it? Guffa's solution will let me force Swedish sorting-oder (changing CultureInfo) on a device running under German Regional settings. Using Comparer.DefaultInvariant with its association to English wouldn't help in this case, probably the letter Ö would end up with O. Therefore my vote will go to Guffa.

I created this command from a few examples which reads the text from a StreamReader, Trims, splits on EoL, and returns a unique list. My next command is a sort. I couldnt figure out how to add a sort to this command. Its really not that important but I was curious if there�s an easy way.

I have profitMarginArray(29,3) <29 is actually a variable, but figured I'd put in a number for the example> and what I need is to retreive elements 0 and 3 sorted on 3 in some way shape or form. The biggest problem is element 3 isn't unique so there could be 5 that have the same value (56.34 for instance) so a sorted list is out.
The current array could look something like
Item1, .34, .75, 54.67
Item2, .32, .75, 57.33
