I have a windows based application using vb.net 2005 . My application , i have an array. The array contains 5 numbers. The numbers are,
3, 7, 2, 8 ,1.
I want to get the best combination of sum is 10 by using code .How will i do?
VS2010
VB
I would like to be able to add every combination of a list of numbers to determine which combinations equal a specific result.
Simple Example:
List: 2, 4, 6
Result: 10
How many and which combinations of numbers result in the number 10? The correct anwser is only one which is 4 + 6 = 10. The example is simple but the actual list may contain as many as 10 - 15 decimal numbers.
I have thought of the following as a possible way of checking each combination by using binary:
- There are 3 total number so the possible combinations would be:
123 - Three numbers
000 - Add no numbers
001 - Add the last number
[Code].....
However, I don't know how to actually match up the bitwise bits to the numbers in the array to actually add. Example:
101 - I should check if 2 + 6 != 10 per the example above so this wouldn't satisfy the result... does this make sense? The answer would be 4 + 6 = 10.
how to check and add all combinations from a list of numbers to determine if the result is a specific number?
I'm looking for some function to put together every possible combination of letters and number to create a string that is 14 characters long. I have found ways to make every possible combination of letters and numbers seperately. However, I've never run across anything to come up with them together. Every string created must contain letters and numbers.I just have no idea where to start on this one.

View 10 RepliesNumber1 = String.Concat(2, 106, 15, 233) Which will be 210615233.I am dealing with a problem in which I want to join some numbers then I come back again and split them up. The problem here I cannot save the original combination. Is there an Anti-concat method with saving the original combinations?For example, if I joined 3, 10, 4, 0 and 323 = 31040323. After some operations in my code I want to come back and split them up to the original combination of (3,10,4....etc). Please note that I am doing this not for one number, it is for many numbers.
View 5 RepliesI'm working on a program and in it I need to store all combination's of the numbers 1,2,3,4. I would like each combination to be it's own array, and instead of creating 24 different arrays (there are 24 different combinations 1,2,3 and 4 can be arranged) I was wondering if it's possible to create a nested array like so:
[ [1,2,3,4], [1,2,4,3], [1,3,4,2], [1,3,2,4] .......]
That way, I'd be able to reference index 2 of the above array and have the array [1,3,4,2] returned.I looked into multidimensional arrays, but this would require me calling each index of the row and column.I also looked into making a Structure in which there was an array that could hold 4 numbers, but wasn't sure if going that method would be practical or not.

View 1 RepliesI have an array like so:
Dim classes() as String = {"FR%", "SO", "JR", "SR", "SR5"}
I need to loop through these values like so:
For Each value as String in classes
Next
Problem is, I have a If..Then..Else clause inside of this For Each..Next which says something to the effect of:
If actual_class = value Then
txt.Text = "Welcome"
Else
txt.Text = "Goodbye"
When I run this, unless the individual is the last value in the string array ("SR5") they are going to get the message "Goodbye"...so, I need somehow to both iterate through each value like is done with a For Each..Next loop but also break out of the loop once it hits the student's class, like a Do..While loop - so that their value doesn't get overrun by the Else clause.

I would like to generate a combination of words. For example if I had the following list:
{cat, dog, horse, ape, hen, mouse}
then the result would be n(n-1)/2
cat dog horse ape hen mouse
(cat dog) (dog horse) (horse ape) (ape hen) (hen mouse)
(cat dog horse) (dog horse ape) (horse ape hen) etc
what I want to do is I want to list every possible combination with alphabet A-Z and number 0-9 That will be AAAA?
View 8 Repliesi would like to know that is there any way to activate a button with the Ctl and a key combination
we can do it with Alt and the key combination but my client is asking for ctrl & the key combination i have searched a lot but failed to find anything.
secondly :
i have used the alt & key combination for my buttons but the prob. is unless and untill the user presses the alt key the key combination is not highlighted. i have seen progs. where the key that is used for e.g. i have given &Add then the 'A' key is highlighted always with the underline. but when i am doing it by giving the name as &Add unless and untill the user presses alt the underline under A doesnt appear. do i have do more than just giving "&Add".

View 6 RepliesI have 9 numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. I want different combinations of 5 numbers out of 9 numbers (no repeat of same numbers in a row). E.g. 1,2,3,4,5 - correct, 1,1,2,3,4 - wrong
I want no duplication either
E.g.:
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,5,4
Any formula which works for 8 or 9 or 10 or n numbers. I know there is 126 ways C(9,5)=(9!)/(4!.5!)=...=126 ways. I need the code to generate unique set numbers
