Order from least to greatest

[Vindicator]

Im making a script that will find everything I need to help me get through my math home work... and I need to find how to order 9 numbers from least to greatest (to find the median), would I be able to do it with strings? if so how?

EDIT: ALSO, how would I be able to find the number with greatest value (MODE), do I have to use ALL those IF...Then commands?

Research this in the help file.

#include <Array.au3>
_ArraySort ( ByRef $a_Array, [$i_Descending[, $i_Base=0[, $i_Ubound=0[, $i_Dim=1[, $i_SortIndex=0]]]]] )

[Schatten]

I think it would be the best to use arrays for that job

[Vindicator]

theres one problem though, it only sorts my numbers by the first number, like:

82342

9347

183

23

453

78832

63

592

399999

it would come out:

9347

82342

78832

63

592

453

399999

23

183

And im using this:

$avArray[0]=GUICtrlRead($Input_1)

$avArray[1]=GUICtrlRead($Input_2)

$avArray[2]=GUICtrlRead($Input_3)

$avArray[3]=GUICtrlRead($Input_4)

$avArray[4]=GUICtrlRead($Input_5)

$avArray[5]=GUICtrlRead($Input_6)

$avArray[6]=GUICtrlRead($Input_7)

$avArray[7]=GUICtrlRead($Input_8)

$avArray[8]=GUICtrlRead($Input_9)

_ArraySort( $avArray,1)

how do I fix this?

[SmOke_N]

and if you do $avArray[0] = Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_X)) how does it sort? If you're still having issues, I wrote something to do this before for Valuater, I'll have to find it.

could just pad with zeros using stringformat and then convert back to numbers using number function which should strip the zeros back off

I remembered what i did on the old listview sort routine to handle numbers

on your read convert it to a number, the read returns a string, the sort should work as wanted then

i.e.

[autoit]

$avArray[0]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_1))

$avArray[1]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_2))

$avArray[2]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_3))

$avArray[3]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_4))

$avArray[4]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_5))

$avArray[5]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_6))

$avArray[6]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_7))

$avArray[7]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_8))

$avArray[8]=Number(GUICtrlRead($Input_9))

_ArraySort( $avArray,1)
