init, pushback
Purpose
To read data from an ASCII file and stored in a Vector object.
If file name extension is omitted, the function will add default extensions to the files. The default extension of an ASCII data file is ".txt".
Unless the path name is given in the file names, the function will search for the files in the current working directory, defined by command "set path".
An example of an ASCII data file is as follows.
10
45
7
Here the data file has 3 lines. This will generate a vector of 3 elements.
It is possible to have a comment line in the data file, by inserting a slash sign, "/", in front of a line. Comment lines will not be read by the function.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{void} object.LOAD({String} argm1)

init
Purpose
To find in a vector object a particular value of element. This function expects that the content of the vector is already sorted, or otherwise it will not work correctly.
It performs a binary searching which is much faster than using the function "find".
The return result is an index of the vector, if found, otherwise it returns -1.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{int} ret = object.FIND({int} argm1)
argm1 = value of an element wanted to find

See also (class function)
find
Purpose
To empty the content of the vector.
This function can be used to reset the vector very quick. It simply sets the size of the vector to zero. It does not do any memory initialization.
Class

Usage
{void} object.REMALL()
Example:
|
->v = VecInt(5) ->v.pushback(100) ->v.pushback(200) ->v.pushback(300) ->v.pushback(400) ->v.remall() ->print v -> |
See also (class function)
remove, remsort
Purpose
To remove an element at a particular index out of the vector.
This function replace the content at the required index with the last element, and simply reduces the size of the vector by 1.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{void} object.REMOVE({int} argm1)
argm1 = index at which the element being removed
Example:
|
->v = VecInt() ->v.lingen(100,400,100) ->print v ->print v |
See also (class function)
remall, remsort
Purpose
To remove a group of elements, specified by a starting index and ending index, out of the vector. This function will fill up the gap by shift the rest of the content of the vector forward.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{void} object.REMSORT({int} argm1,[{int} argm1])
argm1 = start index at which the element being removed
argm2 = ending index at which the element being removed
(default = the same index as the start index)
Example:
|
->v = VecInt() ->v.lingen(1,20,2) ->print v ->print v |
See also (class function)
remall, remove
Purpose
To reverse the content of the vector.
Class

{VecInt} ret = object.REVERSE()
Example:
|
->v = VecInt() ->v.lingen(1,20,2) ->print v ->print v1 |
See also (class function)
sort, qsort
Purpose
To save as ASCII format. Each line in the output file represents an element in the vector.
if a file name extension is not given, the function assumes an extension of ".txt".
if a path name is not include in the specified file name, the function will search in the current data path, set by command "set path".
Class
VecInt
Usage
{void} object.SAVE({String} argm1, [{int} argm2])
argm1 = output file name
argm2 = no of decimal digits (default = value set by command "set precision")
Example:
|
->v.save("my_data") |
See also (class function)
load
Purpose
To report the current size of the vector. This is the current number of elements in the vector.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{int} ret = object.SIZE()
Example:
|
->v = VecInt(5) ->v.size() |
See also (class function)
maxsize, truncate, extend
Purpose

Example:
|
->v = VecInt(5) ->v.pushback(400) ->v.pushback(300) ->v.pushback(200) ->print v ->print v1 |
See also (class function)
hsort
Purpose
To trim out all the empty space of the current vector.
Suppose a vector has 5 elements in it, and its max size is 500, once it is trimmed, the max size is reduced to 5. This function does a new memory initialization.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{void} object.TRUNCATE()
argm1 = number of elements wanted to extend
Example:
|
->v = VecInt(5) ->v.maxsize() ->v.maxsize() |
See also (class function)

Purpose
To get and take it out the last element of the vector.
This function is similar to function "last", however, it reduces the size of the vector by 1.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{int} ret = object.UNSTACK()
Example:
|
->v = VecInt() ->v.lingen(1,8) ->print v ->print x 8 ->print v |
See also (class function)
last
Purpose
To extract a portion of a vector, specified by a starting index and ending index.
Class
VecInt
Usage
{VecInt} ret = object.WINDOW({int} argm1,{int} argm2)
argm1 = start index at which the element being extracted
argm2 = ending index at which the element being extracted
Example:
|
->v = VecInt() ->v.lingen(1,8) ->print v ->print v1 |
