I have two comma delimted strings that I need to compare individual values
between the two. I assume the solution is likely to put them into an array?
If so, do I need to loop through one, comparing the other, or is there some
sort of compare function already in .net?
For instance, I have these strings:
str1: ,3,6,12,17,
str2: ,7,8,12,
I need to check to see if any of the values in str1 exists in str2.
Off the top of my yead, I could split str2 into an array, then loop through
the values in the array using the instr function to see if they exist in
str1.

there are a lot of ways to do this. You could split on array loop through
it and look for a non-negative IndexOf of the value within the other string.
you could split both and loop through both
you could split them and load them in arraylists and use Contains (which
merely loops)

Looping it is!
Just realized that it's not really that big of an issue. Split one of the
two, loop through the other comparing.

Hi,
im trying to write a small progam to compare data in 2 textfiles.
I want to search for values that doesnt exist in File2.
The result should be "3" in the example below but Im not

both files and Im getting a lot of "hits". (outer and inner while-loops)
Below is an examples...

Hi
Hopefully I am missing something really simple with this question, but
here goes.
I have two Bitarrays that I would like to compare. At the moment, I am
XORing one with the other and checking to see if the result has any 1s
in it (if so, the arrays are different). This seems to be faster than
comparing each bit of the two original...

I have two char arrays of size k.
I want to know which one is bigger (exactly like for instance

What is the fastest way to do this? k <= 10 usually for my application.
I tried bcmp / a loop for comparison, but it seems they are very slow
compared to comparing longs...Any ideas?
I tried splitting the array...

Hi folks,
I am comparing two arrays and removing matches from the second array
from the first array.
Can someone take a look at this code below and mention if this is okay
and perhaps if there is a better way to achieve it
for(i=0;i<arrayA.length;i++){
for(j=0;j<arrayB.length;j++){
if(arrayA==arrayB)
