ActionScript 2.0 :: Finding Values In Array - Searching Small Number Of Elements
Feb 3, 2006I just read the tutorial "Finding Values in an Array". Sure, the code works, but that's only because we are searching arrays the contain a small number of elements. Suppose we have n elements in an array. To search that array for a particular element we may have to do n comparisons. If the array we are searching contains 10 million elements, we have a problem; can you imagine doing "if (this == that)" 10 million times? There's got to be a better way to search the array. Or perhaps we shouldn't use arrays to store the information.

Jul 3, 2011I 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).
Add Metadata For Searching To FLA Documents?
May 29, 2009In Flash CS3 when you did Modify/Document it allowed you to type in a document Title and Description which were metadata searchable by internet search engines. According to the book "Brilliant Flash CS4" this is still possible in CS4, but I think they have removed the option, and the book is wrong. add metadata for searching to FLA documents or is this now gone?
View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Searching Through .fla Files?
May 5, 2011Usually when I am looking for a specific field name, section of code or variable, I will run a GREP regex search to search through my ASP files, which works great as they are just stored as plain text, however I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to do the same with ".fla" files.
The GREP search looks through all my files in one go and returns a list of files which match the search terms; but wouldn't work on .fla files as the actionscript is not stored as plain text. Possibly this would work if I converted all my ".fla"s to use seperate ".as" files but this would be a lot of work and I'd rather avoid it if possible.

Basically i have a list that is read from an XML file.
I am busy writing a function to allow a user to enter a search word that will allow him/her to find the closest matching node.
For example, if the nodes are:
1) movies
2) music
3) books
4) plays
typing "m" will search and scroll through 1 and 2 continuosly after every button click but typing "mo" will find only 1.

View 1 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Searching A Collection In Flex?
Sep 10, 2009I have a collection in Flex and I have sorted it by a date field, so the latest elements appear first in my view.
In order to do this I have applied a sort field like so:
var articleSort:Sort = new Sort();
articleSort.fields = [ new SortField('published', false, true), new SortField('id', true, true)];
articles.sort = articleSort;
articles.refresh();
Now I want to be able to use a cursor to findFirst() in that collection based on the id. However in order to do that I have to also pass through the published date in the findFirst() method. This is a real pain as I don't have the published date at that time, (or it's expensive to get).
articleCoursor.findFirst({ published: modelLocator.articles.getArticleById(event.newArticleId).published, id: event.newArticleId });
As you can see I am having to get it from the modelLocator in my application, and basically look up the item...
Ideally I would like to pass a wildcard though for the date in the FindFirst() function, as the id is the only thing I care about when searching. However it seems it Flex I can't do that.
The other option that occurred to me is to resort the collection before searching, but that would cause my view to re-render (as it's bound to the collection) on the collections refresh event. Plus it seems rather silly to have to resort in order to search.

Java :: Searching For A Free Charting Library?
Oct 29, 2009I am searching for a free charting library, either in Java, JS, or Flash, that allows for drill-down type interaction. An example of this sort of behavior can be found in the trends section on mint.com. JFreeChart seems like the generally recommended choice for charting purposes, but from a little browsing of their API there doesn't seem to be any obvious way to detect mouse clicks on a particular slice and change the chart in response.
Any advice on how to handle this sort of behavior using JFreeChart, or if this is not possible any recommendations for other libraries that do support this behavior?

Jul 20, 2009I have one global array, and I am pushing other arrays (which contain strings) in it.
[GOLD, SILVER, BRONCE]
[BLUE, RED, GREY, ORANGE, PURPLE]
[JUICE, BEER, WATER, MILK, COFFEE]
[MERC, BMW, SUBARU, MITSUBISHI, TOYOTA]
Lets say I have these 4 arrays, and I push them into global array in that order.
Example 1:
if I have string "MILK", I need to search the global array and what I want is to pull out last array (with cars) because "MILK" is contained in third array (going from the beggining).
Example 2:
if I choose "ORANGE" I want to pull out last 2 arrays (drinks and cars).
Example 3:
if I choose string from the last array ("MERC") nothing is pulled out. And by pull out I mean just get to it.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Searching A XML File By A Range Of Numbers?
Aug 16, 2010I 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>
