Need help writing an expression

Hi peeps,

I need help with writing an expression.

I've got a file which is read into an array.

Changes have been made to the array and I'm writing the array into a new file.

What I wrote until now was:

$i = 1

For [exp[b][/b]ression]

Filewriteline("test.txt", $array[$i])
$i = $i + 1

Next

where what I want in the expression is:

until the end of the array or something like the array returns null

thanx in advance!!

;)

maybe like this

For $i = 1 to $array[0]

Filewriteline("test.txt", $array[$i])

Next

hope that helps

sometimes this works with 1 number less than $array[0]

For $i = 1 to $array[0] -1

Filewriteline("test.txt", $array[$i])

Next

it depends....

hope that helps too

hi Valuater,

I've tried that before I posted up this thread.

The file it wrote to is empty.

The sample test code is as follows:

Dim $array[6]

$array[1] = "abc"
$array[2] = "def"
$array[3] = "ghi"
$i = 1

FileOpen("test.txt", 2)

For $i = 1 to $array[0]
    FileWriteLine("test.txt", $array[$i])
    $i = $i + 1
Next

FileClose("test.txt")

because YOU are creating the array... you need to set the limit

Dim $array[6]

$array[0] = 6
$array[1] = "abc"
$array[2] = "def"
$array[3] = "ghi"


FileOpen("test.txt", 2)

For $i = 1 to $array[0] -1
FileWriteLine("test.txt", $array[$i])
Next

FileClose("test.txt")


run( "notepad.exe test.txt")

this works

oh yea it works great~!!

but can you explain why is there a "-1" at the end of the expression?

shouldn't it be "+1"? I don't really get it.....

well.... from a hobbyist's point of view

for... next

does a count for you

for $x = 1 to 100
; do something
Next

will do this 100 times

if you use while... you need to do the count

while $t <= 100
;do something
    $t = $t + 1
WEnd

this will do 100 times also...

$But, with arrays

there are times that the array[0] includes the [0]

as part of the count, thus array[0] -1

what was different with yours was YOU created the array...

thus YOU need to set the [0] = (number)

hope that helps
