Hello, my solution to the array problem was to create a new class,
"HyperArray", which has functions for insert, remove, remove duplicates. It
holds an array, currently of size 1024, but the methods make it appear as if
it's an array of variable length.
So, I'm going to have the Cell class inherit from HyperArray, and simply add
methods that are specific to manipulating arrays of notes (or whatever) in
serial fashion.
If anyone wants to test this class out more, I'd appreciate it. There may be
some things wrong, because when I used the get() method internally, in the
shuffle function, it crashed check for reasons I don't really understand.
Here's the code:
//HyperArray
public class HyperArray
{
//initialize
1024 => int max;
0 => int hyperLen;
float hyperA[max];
//set
fun void set(float a[])
{
a.cap() => hyperLen;
for (0 => int i; i hyperA[i];
}
}
//get
fun float[] get()
{
float temp[hyperLen];
for (0 => int i; i temp[i] ;
}
return temp;
}
//print
fun void print()
{
for (0 => int i; i>> ;
}
}
//remove
fun void remove (int index)
{
hyperLen--;
for (0 => int i; i < hyperLen; i++)
{
if (i==index || i>index)
{
hyperA[i+1] => hyperA[i];
}
}
}
//insert
fun void insert (int index, float item)
{
hyperLen++;
get() @=> float temp[];
for (0 => int i; i < hyperLen; i++)
{
if (i==index)
{
item => hyperA[i];
}
if (i>index)
{
temp[i-1] => hyperA[i];
}
}
}
//sort
fun float[] sort()
{
float temp;
for (0 => int x ; x < hyperLen-1; x++)
{
for (0 => int y; y < hyperLen-x-1; y++)
{
if (hyperA[y] > hyperA[y+1])
{
hyperA[y] => temp;
hyperA[y+1] => hyperA[y];
temp => hyperA[y+1];
}
}
}
return hyperA;
}
//remove duplicates
fun float[] removeDup()
{
int purge[hyperLen];
0 => int purgeIndex;
for (0 => int i; i int j; j purge[purgeIndex];
purgeIndex++;
}
}
}
for (purgeIndex => int k; k>0; k--)
{
remove(purge[k-1]);
}
return hyperA;
}
//reverse
fun float[] reverse()
{
float newA[hyperLen];
hyperLen - 1 => int counter;
for (0 => int i; i newA[counter];
counter--;
}
set(newA);
return(hyperA);
}
//shuffle
fun float[] shuffle(int times)
{
float newA[hyperLen];
for (0 => int i; i newA[i] ;
}
//--- Shuffle elements by randomly exchanging each with one other.
for (0 => int i; i int j; j int r; // generate a random position
newA[j] => float temp;
newA[r] => newA[j];
temp => newA[r];
}
}
set(newA);
return(hyperA);
}
}
fun void testShiz()
{
HyperArray booyah;
<<<"Set and print array">>>;
booyah.set([5.0,2.0,3.0,4.0,5.0,1.0,2.0,3.0]);
booyah.print();
<<<"Remove item at index 3 and print HyperArray">>>;
