Hey Guys. Morning.
I have a question that I think will be easy for you answer me:
Is it possible to use the MaxSpa function to get a Max value from an array two dimensions, for exemple: X(5,2)? If so, how the instruction will evaluate the Max and how the values will be returned to me ?
Regards.
Internally, multi-dimensional arrays are often considered as "lengthy" single dimensional arrays. So I would try this:
--
Public X(5,2)
Public myMax(2)
...
MaxSpa(myMax(),10,X())
--
The swath of 10 is chosen by counting up all the elements in the multi-dimensional array. (5x2)
I would test it out with some test data first to make sure it works properly. If it doesn't work, then my guess is that there isn't currently a way to do this.
If it doesn't work, I think the easiest solution would be to dump the values of your multi-dimensional array into a single-dimensional array and run MaxSpa on that.
It would be something like this (I haven't tested it out):
--
Public X(5,2)
Public Combo(10)
Public myMax(2)
Dim I as Long
Dim J as Long
Dim N as Long
N = 1
For I = 1 To 5
For J = 1 to 2
Combo(N) = X(I,J)
N += 1
Next 'J
Next 'I
MaxSpa(myMax(),10,Combo())
Hey.
I've just found out how it works.
When using MaxSpa to return the Max value in a two dimensions array, it will give us the max value and its exact location. For exemple: Pretend you have an array X(5,2) . If the Max value is in position X(4,2), Dest1 will be Max value and Dest 2 will return the number 8 as its position. The instruction will treat the two dimensions array like if it was a one dimension array.
Thanks for your help
Best regards.
