ActionScript 2.0 :: Remove Mid Array Only Beginning And End

Jan 18, 2004

I have a box with 5 pieces of paper inside
myArray1 = new Array ("1","2", "3", "4", "5");

I am going to chose a piece at random from the box
$i = random(5);
trace(myArray1[$i]);

That piece has now been removed from the box, therefor it has to be removed from the array, now how to remove from mid-array only beginning and end, so I thought of this:
Code:
for (var $loop = 0; $loop < myArray1.length(); $loop++) {
if ($loop <> $i) {
myArray2 = new Array();
myArray2.push(myArray1[$loop]);
}}
trace(myArray2);

How I have set this up, but I am thinking if the loop index of the random piece is equal to the random number, then skip that, else, put all the other pieces in a new box. But when I trace the 2nd array, it displays the random value. Is there any way to move everything from an array into a new array WITHOUT a certain element? I mean I know you can move a certain element via its array position, any form of array.pushNOT($n, ($n+1))

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Values Past An Array Length And Clear Entire Array?

Oct 8, 2009

I'm using the .unshift method therefore the newest values go into [0] and the rest are pushed down.

What is a good method to remove a value from an array once it has passed a certain length? For example i only want my array to hold 5 values.

Also, is there a method for clearing the entire array, ie removing all values? Or will i have to manually change all the values with a loop?

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Remove Element From Array?

Jun 16, 2009

I have an array used to track shots fired from a cannon, and when they hit the ground they are removed.

I would like to know what is the most efficient way of finding and removing a certain element from an array. I heard that using pop() instead of splice() was faster, is it ?

Also, the big question I have is that the only way I see of actually finding the element in the array is using

Code:
for(i=0;i<array.length;i++){
if(array[i] == movieClipToRemove){
//i == movieClip index in the array
}
}

Then I would use either splice() or pop() to remove it from the array before deleting the MC. Is there a better way than scanning through the whole array comparing each element to the triggering MC ?

Flex :: Best Way To Remove All Elements From AS Array?

Sep 25, 2009

I'm writing an application in Flex / ActionScript and have a number of class member variables of type Array storing data. My question is: what's the "best" way to clear out an Array object? I noticed the ArrayCollection class has a function removeAll() which does this, but the basic Array class does not. Some possibilities I've considered are:
Iterating through the array, calling pop or shift on each element
Setting the array length to 0
Setting the member variable to a "new Array()" or "[]"

Feb 14, 2012

I have an array of questions for an interactive quiz game. When you answer a question, functionally I want that question to be removed from the array (cat4Questions) so that it won't come back for the player so I tried to splice it.I wasn't sure if it was working so I traced the array. While I was expecting "question1, question2, question3, question4" to be traced, "question1, question2, question3, question4, question5" was the result of my trace.This is the line of code where I try to splice the array:cat4Questions.splice(cat4Questions.length,1);trace(cat4Questions);

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove Duplicates From Array

Oct 21, 2010

I want to remove duplicates from an array. I've a command which works very fine:
arrayID = (arrayID.filter(function(e:*, j:int, a:Array) {return a.indexOf(e) == j;}, this));

This code is for normal arrays which contain only normal values (number or string).. but i've an array in my script, which has objects in that...
var arrayID:Array = [{value:1, name:"asd"},{value:2, name:"asd"},{value:3, name:"asd"},{value:1, name:"qwe"},{value:2, name:"qwe"},{value:3, name:"qwe"},{value:4, name:"asd"}];

What I want is I want to remove duplicates of "name" element! so after removing it should become:
arrayID = [{value:1, name:"asd"}, {value:1, name:"qwe"}];
I believe it is quite easy even I tried to play with the code but I could not do...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove The First Item In Array?

Nov 30, 2010

So I'm getting strange results when trying to remove the first item in my array. When I remove the first item by using the shift() method, it deletes the whole array instead of just the first item.

Here is my code.

Code:
public class Main extends MovieClip
{
var deck:Array =

[Code]....

When I run the program it correctly shuffles the deck array and pushes all the shuffled items into the shuffledDeck Array. Then the first 26 cards get pushed into the playerDeck Array and the rest go to the computerDeck Array.

When the last bit of code runs, it correctly picks the first item in the playerDeck Array, but when I try to remove that item, it removes everything in playerDeck.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove All Objects From Array

Nov 23, 2009

I'm trying to remove all objects from an array, and then emptying the array using splice. I'm restarting the game, removing all objects etc so that I can add them again. But what happens is that no object (enemies, blocks, bullets etc) is really removed. It's not visible anymore, but it's still on the stage wreaking havoc (hit detection still working, so enemies are avoiding enemies that were supposed to be removed, bullets hitting them and so on). And then when I restart the game a couple of times I have way too many objects and the game starts to lag. Code below: This is the code for the enemy, I have different loops for the other objects, but they all look the same:
Code:
for(var a=0; a<enemy1.length; a++) //loop through enemy1 {
if(enemy1[a].dead == true) //check if dead {
removeChild(enemy1[a]); //remove from stage
enemy1.splice(a,1); //remove element from array
}}
So to reiterate, I need to remove the objects from the stage, and clear/empty the array.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove An Element In An 2-d Array?

Using a for-loop I made a grid of movieclips. But I wanted it so every second row had one less than the one above it. I thought I had that sorted when I placed an if statement in the method. However, flash still "sees" the missing movieclip. I've tried to splice the array element from it, but instead of removing it, it seems to have copied it.

Here's the code:

Code:
