What is the fastest way to determine if two arrays that
contain ValueTypes are equal? For example, lets say I
have the following:
Dim pt1 as New Drawing.Point(1 , 2)
Dim pt2 as New Drawing.Point(2 , 3)
Dim pt3 as New Drawing.Point(3 , 4)
Dim pt4 as New Drawing.Point(4 , 5)
Dim A() as Drawing.Point = {pt1, pt2, pt3}
Dim B() as Drawing.Point = {pt1, pt2, pt3}
Dim C() as Drawing.Point = {pt2, pt3, pt4}
Dim D() as Drawing.Point = {pt3, pt2, pt1}
What is the fastest way to determine that B equals A but
that C and D do not equal A? The only way I know is to
loop through the arrays and test each member (e.g.,
Drawing.Point.o p_Equality(A(i) , B(i)), but it seems like
there must be a better way.
Thanks for any help! 3 21370
assuming { 1, 2, 3 } does not equal { 1, 3, 2 } (i.e. order matters in the
equality)
the only way to confirm to arrays are equal is to check every member...
however, you can note that two arrays are not equal as soon as two adjacent
members are not equal.
something like:
Function AreArraysEqual( ByRef one As Object(), ByRef two As Object()) As
Boolean
' check lengths are the same
If one.Length <> two.Length Then
Return False
End If
' check each element
For index As Integer = 0 To one.Length - 1
If (one.GetValue(i ndex) <> two.GetValue(in dex)) Then
Return False
End If
Next
Return True
End Function

That's also the only way I know.

Hi! I am trying to determine if the DataRow of one dataset contains the same

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to write a program that does a few things very fast
and with efficient use of memory...
a) I need to parse a space-delimited file that is really large,
upwards fo a million lines.
b) I need to store the contents into a unique hash.
c) I need to then sort the data on a specific field.
d) I need to pull out certain fields and report them to the user.

The subject says it all... I want to use a byte and use it as byte* so I

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
