I am loading data from an xml file into several different arrays. Once its all information is in the arrays I then sort one of the arrays (called percentage) numerically from highest to lowest. What I can't figure out is how to reflect the changes in position in the other arrays to what has happened in the percentage array.

I need to sort an arraycollection. the problem is that my array is combined from two diffrent arrays, in one the age field is called "AGE", and in the other the age is called "MYAGE".
Now I need to sort the combined array according to age but I got two fields with diffrent names. I can go through the array and change all "MYAGE" to "AGE" but i was wondering if theres maybe a way to sort the array in its current status?
What I want is to sort a Vector array of objects(not primitive), based on a propery(Number). (think character.zDepth). Generally the same thing as the sortOn function of Arrays, except that we don't have that for Vectors.
like myArray.sortOn(x, Array.NUMERIC)
Dealing with Vector arrays of primitives not complex objects.
iSo let's say I have three different arrays of objects, and I want to combine them into one sorted array. I want the order to be such that the items from each array are evenly distributed throughout the sorted array.
If there were 3 xItems, 3 yItems, and 3 zItems, the sorted array would have this order: x, y, z, x, y, z, x, y, z
HOWEVER, even if the arrays are differing lengths, I still need to make them alternate as much as possible. If there were 6 xItems, 4 yItems, and 2 zItems, the sorted array should have this order: x, y, x, y, x, z, x, y, x, y, x, z

No matter how i sort the dataTag array it never puts the information into the respective order. The 10XXX figures always come ahead of the preceeding numerals. Anyone come across this before who can point me in the right direction?
i have an array that i basically load from a csv file. i have a function below that test every number for the value if is a number.[code]the problem im having is that when it reads the array is reading ",15" instead off "15" how do i remove a character from an array ? i dont want to remove the whole element just a character.
View 9 Repliesi got an existing array, main[y], which after an equation, will come out with another array.
Code:
if (main[y] === topicList.getValue()){
subTopic = [];
subTopic = fTitle[y]
trace(subTopic)
}
However, i could not sort the subTopic, as it gkeep giving me undefined. Is there any way to sort this subTopic, such that they are in alphabetical orders?
how to reorder an array based on the information contained in another array. What my script is currently doing is detecting all the attached monitors I have and then ordering them based on their left bounds. However I then want to reorder the screens location in the array based on whether the user has selected that display or not. If the user has selected it, by clicking a button, the button movie clip will be on frame two, if they haven't been chosen it will be on frame one. So what I am doing is then creating two separate arrays, chosen screens and not chosen screens, and then combining them into one.
Code:
if(displayButton.currentFrame==displayButton.totalFrames)
{
//sort the chosen ones into an array
[Code]....
My problem now is being able to reorder a separate array which contains all the screens, called screenArray, based off of that. screenArray currently returns [Object Screen], [Object Screen], [Object Screen], etc... and is in the order of 1,2,3,4,5,6. How do I take then and get it to be equal to the order of my displayButtonsChosen Array of 1,3,5,2,4,6?
I started to mess up with classes to see how they work, and I'm having some troubleI'm trying to do a class where the user gives an array, and a number. The result is a trace of random X numbers, according to the number the user requested. If he/she types 3, the class gives 3 numbers.It works nice, but when I try to put an sort(Array.NUMERIC), i get this error:

I'm saving several arrays into a SharedObject and I'm able to read them back fine from the SharedObject when the movie loads. However, one of these arrays contains numbers instead of strings, and the contents of this numeric array show up as 'undefined' when read back from the SharedObject.
View 0 RepliesI've been searching for ever for a solution to sort a numeric array that I create from an xml file. All I can sort is the first digit of each number. So I get this for example: 4,4,4,3,23,2,2,10,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,023 should be first! How to I fix that?Here is my code:

I am building a remote control, and when i enter txt, right now i can "change the channel" only for a single value 1-9. the way it functions is you hit the number, then an enter button, and the channel changes. The problem is I want to able to enter 2 digits, and the way i have it coded now, it adds the the numbers together instead of reading 1 as 2 , 2 as 4 and so on, here is the code, I'm thinking i should use an array, or a string to get the proper value, but when i use the "+" sign it still adds the number together, how would i express, so it sees 11 as eleven etc?

How would you go about initializing a Vector. with say the values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Logic would say you could do newVector = new Vector. ( [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] );
You could also try something like this...
var tmp = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
newVector = new Vector.();
newVector = newVector.concat(tmp);
But then you get a type error converting Array to Vector.
I'm stumped, am I missing something stupid or does the vector class really not play well with numeric types? You can try making them decimal numbers just to be sure they get cast as number and not int.
While a for loop runs through all the elements in an array I want to get the width of each element and add it to the sum of the width of all previous elements.
View 2 RepliesTrying to re-sort an array of objects from:
var arr:Array = new Array({num:0},{num:1},{num:2},{num:3})
to
var arr:Array = ({num:0},{num:3},{num:1},{num:2})
- Put a bunch of MC's on the stage distributed horizontally.
- Store them in an array.
- yourArray.sortOn("x", Array.DESCENDING)
- loop though the now "sorted" array and trace their x property.
Doesn't work, does it? If it did, shuffle them up and try again (sometimes, perhaps randomly they will be in order).
have a twodimensional array that consists of 6 other arrays(like array[0 to 5][0 to 4]). The [4] of each sub-array is a indexnumber that i'd like to use for sorting the array[0][x] toarray[5][x] according to their array[x][4]-value. How would I do

View 2 RepliesI am trying to sort an array that is generated thru an xml file.
The XML has "sections" that are used to generate a different view type, it is NOT used here but is needed for other features. What IS used is the artist name & ID. This function takes the data from XML and takes the name and ID from each section and puts it into 2 separate Arrays, "nameArr" and "noArr". After these two new arrays are created they are sent into an object "sectionData". The objects are then sent into a new Array "multiArr". This looks a little overkill but it is needed to create a new array without the section info.
I am trying to sort this new array multiArr using the "sortOn" method by "ID" to sort it by id but it is not working. It doesn't sort the array.
ActionScript Code:
public function setListData( data:Array ) {
var sectionData:Object = {};

I'm using Insertion sort on a partially sorted array:
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<productArray.length;i++)
{
var val:Product = productArray[i];
[Code].....
The problem is that since products are removed from time to time, my array may contain null references for some indexes. Thus the above algorithm will throw an error in runtime.
Usually I'd just do a quick check i.e.
if(productArray[i] != null)
and I'd be fine, but in this case I'm constantly checking properties in the while loop and I'm not really sure how to go about doing this.
I want this to be sorted by first name only: "John Smith 18", "Charlotte Smith 59", "Chris Doe 26", "Tony Jordan 100", "Charlotte Roberts 17", "Imad Hanna 26", "Charlotte Smith 13"
I can get it sort sort alphabetically just by using .sort(), but it takes into account the last name as well.

I have a function inside a class that will basically sort an array by the first elements first sub-element (ie. [0][x]) and return the second sub element based on that information. I am having the hardest time getting it to work. Partially because I feel that it is inside a class. Also I feel like it sorts the sub elements individually whereas I would need to keep the sub-element pairs together. Here is some of the code.
