RE: FLASH: Sorting numbers using variables

[Branden Hall]

Yeah.... sure. Except you want the variable #s changed to reflect the new order, right?

If thats the case, and you are feeling a little adventurous code-wise you can feel free to check out the qsort files at

They are a sweet little bit of code I wrote a while back --- a port of Suns version of Quicksort to Flash.

It will only sort up to about 300 #s reliably, but it is *fast*! :-)

Subject: FLASH: Sorting numbers using variables

Hallo,

 

i've got a short, but hard question.

I've got news items, put in variables. Each news item has got it's own number. I want those date-variables to be sorted on number.

 

Example:

 

I've got

news1=19991101

news2=19991102

news3=19991031

news4=19991201

 

And want them to be ordered like

 

news3=19991031

news1 =19991101

news2=19991102

news4=19991201

 

No matter how to approach them.

I hope i've been clear. Who knows the answer?

 

Waldo
