Sorting and Array

[Guest.Visitor]

Call function qsort() in the C run-time library. Specify a comparison function that orders the blank values higher than anything else. Alternatively, once you do SORTA, search for first non-blank element, then shift all array elements by that amount. This is probably the easier to code.

Hi Hans. I already considered the %LOOKUP for first non-blank element, but figure there has to be a more clear and concise method. I will look at the qsort(). Even if it is not as clear, I can add something to my little book of knowledge. Thanks again, -Mean 1

Hi All. I want to sort an array. I know I can use SORTA, but don't want the empty array elements to be in front, nor do I want the array to be in descending order. All suggestions are welcome. -Mean 1

Mean 1, You can also initialize the array with *HIVAL. and fill the array elements from the lowest index. Regards, Carel Teijgeler
