Does For...To works with letters too?


Recommended Posts

Can I write this:

For $letter = "a" To "z"

[my code]

Next

..?

Edit Ok.Ok. I explain. I want to realize a "brute-force search"* program: so it needs to send, for example: a; b; c; ... aa; ab; ac; .....

* = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_search

GiulioM,

Have you tried? :)

Short answer: No.

Longer answer: It depends on what you want to do. Using Asc converts letters to numerics and will let you do some things. Explain what you want to do and we will see what we can develop. :(

GuilioM,

Look to my longer answer! :)

What are you trying to search for? Perhaps we can help develop something more elegant. :(

This may help.

This script produces every combination of one, two, and three lower case letters.

Local $sStr, $iCount

For $i = 1 To 26
    $sStr &= Chr($i + 96) & "; "
    $iCount += 1
    For $j = 1 To 26
        $sStr &= Chr($i + 96) & Chr($j + 96) & "; "
        $iCount += 1
        For $k = 1 To 26
            $sStr &= Chr($i + 96) & Chr($j + 96) & Chr($k + 96) & "; "
            $iCount += 1
        Next
    Next
Next
ConsoleWrite("Counted " & $iCount & @CRLF & StringTrimRight($sStr, 2) & @CRLF)
