View 1 RepliesI am writing a scripting language which used .net for execution. Now I have written a function which accepts an object and return a set of numeric values. I wanted user to pass any numeric array (e.g. integer,single,double,long) and I could return values in that format. I mean user can retrieve value in any numeric array type rather than specifying an array type. E.g.

View 4 RepliesSuppose I have an interface called IParseable(Of TParsed, TUnparsed) which requires two functions:[code]Is there a way that I can restrict TParsed and TUnparsed to be numeric types (for which operations like "*" and "+" are already defined)?The problem is that, when I try to implement my interface and define one of the functions, e.g.:[code]VS throws an error saying the "*" is not defined for TUnparsed. I understand that, since TUnparsed could be anything, but is there a way to restrict my generic such that, say, TUnparsed could only be Double, Integer, Long, etc? To require Control to be a TextBox (or maybe I don't understand that very well either). But, anyway, any idea or am I way off track? Just trying to get a hang of these interface thingies and generic types.

View 17 RepliesI am reading a data file and storing them in an array of string.Data is random, could be like "1","2","133,18" but sometimes there can be missing values like "?".Once I load the data in the array, I want to check if at least a majority (like 60% of them) are numeric values.If yes, then I wanna track down the higher and lowest value in the array, and output a range of 5.Loop through the array
If 60% of them are numbers (integers or decimals) then find highest value, find lowest value end if produce range
If for example lowest = 1 and highest = 100, range of 5 means 0,20,40,60,80,100 (so 5 ranges are 0-20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80, 80-100).Also if the ranges turn to have decimals due to weird numbers, I would like to round them up.My problem is, in order to find highest and lowest when there are non numeric values in the array like "?", how should I handle those? I was thinking of something like Double.NaN but I would have to have an array of doubles.

I'm having an issue with my base conversion program. It seems to have a problem converting from base36 to base10 properly. After debugging all night, I've found that it's one certain function that's not working properly. The function seems to convert every last test number correctly, until I start getting into 11-digit numbers in base36. I have the max digits allowable for base36 set to 12 (so as not to exceed the base10 18-quintillion or so that an unsigned long can hold). I'm starting to think the issue is with VB and not with my code.The function as I've written it is below (DIGITS is a global const string ="0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ", and itr is a global integer used throughout the code for iteration):

However the user can only enter the numbers using a number key pad built in the combobox.

The number key pad should contain the numbers 0-9 and decimal(.).
