ActionScript 3.0 :: Searching A XML File By A Range Of Numbers?

Aug 16, 2010

I am almost finished with my project and I am once again stumped on how to tackle a search feature. I have one more section to do that will be a printing function.

Having an XML file, I need to search this file based on a range for criteria.

My XML data will have many sets of data separated by a gamenumber tag. The gamenumber is unique in value but the sub data will not be. There will be same values in that range.

So what I am looking to do is search anywhere from 2 to 10 gamenumbers at a time with 2-10 numbers. These numbers are in an input box and get called from a click event listener.

I have the routine working to search 1 data set but I can for the life of me think of how to do multiple data sets in one shot.

Here is an example,

Search games 2-5 for numbers 2 7 13 19 43 80 etc... Each number is in it's own input box.

The results could be an array or 4 different strings. It should be dynamic because the searches will changes from 2-10 games.

I am using an if else if statement to separate the searches and run it's own routine. So when the start number is not null and the second search number is null, it only searches a single record. The search parses only the data based on the start number search input box.

But if the end number is not null, it will go to the routine and search the scope of the the number range. I am thinking that the routine starts with the start number and then use each gamenumber in a loop to parse the data for that game only and store the results. Append each result into an array or strings.

I looked at for each and for in loops but I am not seeing who to put it together yet.

Here is what the XML Data looks like

Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Container>
<Game>

ActionScript 2.0 :: Animate Numbers Within A Range?

Aug 12, 2008

well i am trying to create this simulation where in lot of numbers keep changing based on the time line. I find it really had to manually animate the numbers frame by frame. Is there a way that i can specify a dynamic text and specify a range of 50-100 and then its starts generating the numbers automatically from 50,51,52... etc, and it should reach the end range at a specified frame.

If i follow this method, animating a number from 10-50 and 1-6 will happen in the timeline of 80 frames.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Search For A Range Of Numbers Inside An Array?

May 15, 2011

I have a standard array with some text items and some numbers.

Here is an array item

ge: 65,  (no quotes around this number)
 
Here is the DataProvider line (the section that applies to my example)

DataProvider([{label:"over 60", data: 65}]);
 
Here is the search line
 
for (var n; int = 0; n<arrayname.length; n++
 
arrayname[n]. Age ==  search_age.selectedItem.data

This works fine because the array number MATCHES the selectedItem data number (65)  exactly and I get all records where age is 65

BUT I want to find records whose age is any number "greater than 60" 

I have tried many ways to use the > sign and keep getting an error, example:

DataProvider([{label:"over 60", data: >60}]);
or
DataProvider([{label:"over 60", data: (>60)}]);
or
DataProvider([{label:"over 60", data: >(60}]);
 
None of these work.

Maybe these aren't numbers?  I've tried putting 'int' in various positions with no results. I'm using a DataGrid which works fine for text items and will find numbers without quotes around them (if those numbers match whats in the array!).
 
What's the way to write this so I can get records greater than, or less than, etc.?

Flash :: Html5 Video Tag - Searching Which Browsers Support Which Video File Types

Apr 29, 2011

Looking into HTML5 video tag, and researching which browsers support which video file types, and my initial thought is things just got harder than just using flash. I am wondering if there is some skeleton code (combined with development approach for videos) that someone has figured out to do the following: If flash is available, use it If not, try html5 video ogg format If that doesn't work, try html5 video h.264 format If that doesn't work, try html5 video webM format Based on what I am seeing, am I correct in thinking that now, in order to accommodate all users on all browsers, a video needs to be published in 4 formats? If so, this HTML5 video thing is an epic fail!

I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers

Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.

if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Function To Pick Out Numbers From A Set Of Numbers?

Nov 18, 2009

create a function that picks out X amount of numbers from a set of numbers? So if X=3, then i need this function to pick out 3 different numbers from say a set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and then stored it into X number of variables.

In saying that, X will only =2, and =5. So in the first instance, i'll need 2 random numbers from the set above that are not the same numbers, and second instance 5 random numbers from the set above (also no repeats of numbers). Then i need to be able to store those 2 or 5 different random numbers from the set into variables to call them with other functions.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Searching In A XML?

Jul 3, 2011

I have 31 XML files, each containing words (A.xml for all the words beginning with the letter "A" and so on).The XML formatting is as follows:

Code:
<words><word>aaa</word>
<word>aab</word>
</words>

(All the words are in alphabetical order)All in all, I have around 400,000 words neatly organized in 31 XMLs.

1. The CPU randomly picks a letter from A to Z. Based on that letter, it loads the appropriate XML file. From that XML file, it randomly loads one word (and when it first loads it, it skips words ending in "nt" - last two characters).

2. When it is presented with the word, the user needs to type in another word, which must start with the two characters that the previous word ended with. Here, the same rule of "nt" applies. Also, Flash needs to check if the word is valid (must check inside the XMLs for the word.

3. If the word is valid, Flash picks another word that starts with the last two characters of the previous word. (Here, the "nt" rule doesn't apply).
