RPGLE End Field Name with an Ascending Variable - websphere

I have a simple question that involves numbering the end of field names with a numeric variable.
Exp: FIELD,X = FIELD01, FIELD,X = FIELD02, ETC....
Z-ADD 1 X 2.0
DOU X = 10
FIELD,X IFEQ *BLANK
MOVE FIELDREAD FIELD,X
ENDIF
ADD 1 X
ENDDO
I could do this in RPG but I'm not sure how to do this in RPGLE. When I try to I get this error: Entry contains data that is not valid; only valid data is used.
Thanks!!

The syntax for array indexes in RPGLE is ARR(X).
FIELD(X) IFEQ *BLANK
If you're not sure about the syntax for RPGLE, try writing a little bit of code in RPG, and then use CVTRPGSRC to convert it to RPGLE.

fSomeFile if e k disk
D ArMax c 10
D Key1 S like(KeyField)
D Field S dim(ArMax) like(FieldRead)
Exsr $Sample1;
*inlr = *on;
return;
Begsr $Sample1;
c z-add 1 X 3 0
setll (key1) SomeFile
dou x = 10;
if Field(x) = *blank;
reade (key1) SomeFile;
if %found(SomeFile);
Field(x) = FieldRead;
endif;
endif;
X = X +1;
enddo;
Endsr;

Syntax error when trying to create new empty list in Python

I'm embarking on my Project Euler adventure and the first line of my Python code is tripping me up. The error I get for the code below is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "python", line 3
3multlist = []
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Which makes NO sense because I've verified up and down that the line in question does have proper syntax!
Code below:
3multlist = []
5multlist = []
3starter = 0
5starter = 0
While (3starter < 1000):
3starter = 3starter + 3
3multlist.append(3starter)
While (5starter < 1000):
5starter = 5starter + 3
5multlist.append(5starter)
b = sum(3multlist)
c = sum(5multlist)
d = b + c
print d
This is because variable name can not start with a numeral.Below are the variable naming convention rules
Variables names must start with a letter or an underscore, such as:
_
underscore
underscore_
The remainder of your variable name may consist of letters, numbers and underscores.
password1
n00b
un_der_scores
Names are case sensitive.
case_sensitive, CASE_SENSITIVE, and Case_Sensitive are each a different variable
Correct version of your program would be
multlist = []
multlist = []
starter = 0
starter = 0
while (starter < 1000):
starter = starter + 3
multlist.append(starter)
while (starter < 1000):
starter = starter + 3
multlist.append(starter)
b = sum(multlist)
c = sum(multlist)
d = b + c
print(d)
If you are using python 3 you need to use brackets with print statement else you can drop them.
It looks like python does not like the number in front of the list declaration
try multlist3 rather than 3multlist

Ruby - How to subtract numbers of two files and save the result in one of them on a specified position?

I have 2 txt files with different strings and numbers in them splitted with ;
Now I need to subtract the
((number on position 2 in file1) - (number on position 25 in file2)) = result
Now I want to replace the (number on position 2 in file1) with the result.
I tried my code below but it only appends the number in the end of the file and its not the result of the calculation which got appended.
def calc
f1 = File.open("./file1.txt", File::RDWR)
f2 = File.open("./file2.txt", File::RDWR)
f1.flock(File::LOCK_EX)
f2.flock(File::LOCK_EX)
f1.each.zip(f2.each).each do |line, line2|
bg = line.split(";").compact.collect(&:strip)
bd = line2.split(";").compact.collect(&:strip)
n = bd[2].to_i - bg[25].to_i
f2.print bd[2] << n
#puts "#{n}" Only for testing
end
f1.flock(File::LOCK_UN)
f2.flock(File::LOCK_UN)
f1.close && f2.close
end
Use something like this:
lines1 = File.readlines('file1.txt').map(&:to_i)
lines2 = File.readlines('file2.txt').map(&:to_i)
result = lines1.zip(lines2).map do |value1, value2| value1 - value2 }
File.write('file1.txt', result.join(?\n))
This code load all files in memory, then calculate result and write it to first file.
FYI: If you want to use your code just save result to other file (i.e. result.txt) and at the end copy it to original file.

Excel Macro, vlookup function works slow, ways to speed up macro

Hello stackexchange community.
I've built a simple tables converter, the main function of which is to convert the table from
1a Value
1b Value
1c Value
1d Value
to
a b c d
1 Value Value Value Value
Unfortunately, the macro runs pretty slow (~ 3 lines per second for one column).
I'd really appreciate if someone could take a look at my piece of code and suggest the way to speed it up.
Here's the piece of code:
Dim LastFinalList As Integer: LastFinalList = Sheet1.Range("O1000").End(xlUp).Row
For Col = 16 To 19
For c = 2 To LastFinalList
searchrange = Sheet1.Range("J:L")
lookfor = Sheet1.Cells(c, 15) & Sheet1.Cells(1, Col)
CountFor = Application.VLookup(lookfor, searchrange, 3, False)
If IsError(CountFor) Then
Sheet1.Cells(c, Col).Value = "0"
Else
Sheet1.Cells(c, Col).Value = CountFor
End If
Next c
Next Col
Thanks in advance and best regards!
UPD:
The Data in unconverted table looks like this (e.g):
Updated by Macro
Value Number Type Key Count Average Value
10 1 a 1a 2 20
30 1 a 1a 2 20
40 1 b 1b 1 40
50 1 c 1c 1 50
So it is also required to calculate averages of repeating types, create a unique list of Numbers (which is LastFinalList in my case) and finally convert it to this:
Number a b c
1 20 40 50
application.vlookupseraches by Number&Type Key, which is also assigned in the unconverted table by macro. The same time those Keys are counted, in order to calculate average for the repeating ones.
Everything works in a blink of an eye till it comes to 'to update final table part.
Full Code:
Sub ConvertToTable()
Dim LastMeter As Integer: LastMeter = Sheet1.Range("I1000").End(xlUp).Row
Sheet1.Range(Cells(2, 9), Cells(LastMeter, 9)).AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, CopyToRange:=Sheet1.Range("O2"), Unique:=True
Sheet1.Range("O1").Value = "The List"
Sheet1.Range("O2").Delete Shift:=xlUp
' to assign keys
For i = 2 To LastMeter
Set CountOpt = Sheet1.Cells(i, 10)
Sheet1.Cells(i, 10).FormulaR1C1 = "=r[0]c[-1]&r[0]c[-2]"
Sheet1.Cells(i, 11).FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNTIF(c10:c10, r[0]c10)"
Next i
'to calculate averages
For x = 2 To LastMeter
If Sheet1.Cells(x, 11).Value = 1 Then
Sheet1.Cells(x, 12).FormulaR1C1 = "=rc7"
ElseIf Sheet1.Cells(x, 11).Value > 1 Then
If Sheet1.Cells(x, 10).Value <> Sheet1.Cells(x - 1, 10).Value Then
Sheet1.Cells(x, 12).FormulaR1C1 = "=ROUND((SUM(rc7:r[" & Sheet1.Cells(x, 11).Value - 1 & "]c7)/" & Sheet1.Cells(x, 11).Value & "),4)"
Else
Sheet1.Cells(x, 12).FormulaR1C1 = "=r[-1]c12"
End If
End If
Next x
'to update final table
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Dim LastFinalList As Integer: LastFinalList = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 15).End(xlUp).Row
For Col = 16 To 19
For c = 2 To LastFinalList
searchrange = Sheet1.Range("J:L")
lookfor = Sheet1.Cells(c, 15) & Sheet1.Cells(1, Col)
CountFor = Application.VLookup(lookfor, searchrange, 3, False)
If IsError(CountFor) Then
Sheet1.Cells(c, Col).Value = "0"
Else
Sheet1.Cells(c, Col).Value = CountFor
End If
Next c
Next Col
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Sheet1.Range("O1").Select
End Sub
Also, initially i had a SUMIF formula instead of application.vlookup to be input in each cell in the converted table. But the code was working as slow as now an was bit bulky, that's why i've decide to switch to VLOOKUP.
The thing is, if it actually the way application.vlookup works (with 0.3sec delay for each row), then i guess there's nothing that can be done, and i'm ok to accept that. Although, if that's not the case, i'd really appreciate if someone could help me out and speed up the process.
Thanks!
You can redefine your LastFinalList variable something like
LastFinalList = Sheets("Sheet1").UsedRange.Rows.Count
OR
LastFinalList = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
instead of explicitly defining used range.
Also use following line of code before your code
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
(Turn screen updating off to speed up macro code. User won't be able to see what the macro is doing, but it will run faster.)
After the whole code runs you can(optional) turn screen updating on with
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
It appears that application.vlookup in my particular case was indeed working very slow (no idea why, though). I've managed to improve macro by replacing vlookup with SUMIF formula in each cell, so now the converted table is updated instantly. Thanks everyone who participated and provided their suggestions!

Lua: how use all tables in table

positions = {
--table 1
[1] = {pos = {fromPosition = {x=1809, y=317, z=8},toPosition = {x=1818, y=331, z=8}}, m = {"100 monster"}},
--table 2
[2] = {pos = {fromPosition = {x=1809, y=317, z=8},toPosition = {x=1818, y=331, z=8}}, m = {"100 monster"}},
-- table3
[3] = {pos = {fromPosition = {x=1809, y=317, z=8},toPosition = {x=1818, y=331, z=8}}, m = {"100 monster"}}
}
tb = positions[?]--what need place here?
for _,x in pairs(tb.m) do --function
for s = 1, tonumber(x:match("%d+")) do
pos = {x = math.random(tb.pos.fromPosition.x, tb.pos.toPosition.x), y = math.random(tb.pos.fromPosition.y, tb1.pos.toPosition.y), z = tb.pos.fromPosition.z}
doCreateMonster(x:match("%s(.+)"), pos)
end
end
Here the problem, i use tb = positions[1], and it only for one table in "positions" table. But how apply this function for all tables in this table?
I don't know Lua very well but you could loop over the table:
for i = 0, table.getn(positions), 1 do
tb = positions[i]
...
end
Sources :
http://lua.gts-stolberg.de/en/schleifen.php and http://www.lua.org/pil/19.1.html
You need to iterate over positions with a numerical for.
Note that, unlike Antoine Lassauzay's answer, the loop starts at 1 and not 0, and uses the # operator instead of table.getn (deprecated function in Lua 5.1, removed in Lua 5.2).
for i=1,#positions do
tb = positions[i]
...
end
use the pairs() built-in. there isn't any reason to do a numeric for loop here.
for index, position in pairs(positions) do
tb = positions[index]
-- tb is now exactly the same value as variable 'position'
end

Radix sort not working in Lua

Firstly I should mention I've not been coding very long at all, although that much is probably obvious from my code :P
I'm having two problems, firstly the sort isn't functioning correctly but does sort the numbers by their length. Any help here would be appreciated.
Secondly it's changing both the table it grabs and the table it returns (not sure why). How do I prevent it changing the table it grabs?
I'd prefer if people didn't post a fully optisimised premade code as I'm not going to learn or understand anything that way.
function radix_sort(x)
pass, bucket, maxstring = 0, x, 2
while true do
pass = pass + 1
queue = {}
for n=#bucket,1,-1 do
key_length = string.len(bucket[n])
key = bucket[n]
if pass == 1 and key_length > maxstring then
maxstring = key_length
end
if key_length == pass then
pool = string.sub(key, 1,1)
if queue[pool + 1] == nil then
queue[pool + 1] = {}
end
table.insert(queue[pool + 1], key)
table.remove(bucket, n)
end
end
for k,v in pairs(queue) do
for n=1,#v do
table.insert(bucket, v[n])
end
end
if pass == maxstring then
break
end
end
return bucket
end
There's a lot of changes I made to get this working, so hopefully you can look through and pickup on them. I tried to comment as best I could.
function radix_sort(x)
pass, maxstring = 0, 0
-- to avoid overwriting x, copy into bucket like this
-- it also gives the chance to init maxstring
bucket={}
for n=1,#x,1 do
-- since we can, convert all entries to strings for string functions below
bucket[n]=tostring(x[n])
key_length = string.len(bucket[n])
if key_length > maxstring then
maxstring = key_length
end
end
-- not a fan of "while true ... break" when we can set a condition here
while pass <= maxstring do
pass = pass + 1
-- init both queue and all queue entries so ipairs doesn't skip anything below
queue = {}
for n=1,10,1 do
queue[n] = {}
end
-- go through bucket entries in order for an LSD radix sort
for n=1,#bucket,1 do
key_length = string.len(bucket[n])
key = bucket[n]
-- for string.sub, start at end of string (LSD sort) with -pass
if key_length >= pass then
pool = tonumber(string.sub(key, pass*-1, pass*-1))
else
pool = 0
end
-- add to appropriate queue, but no need to remove from bucket, reset it below
table.insert(queue[pool + 1], key)
end
-- empty out the bucket and reset, use ipairs to call queues in order
bucket={}
for k,v in ipairs(queue) do
for n=1,#v do
table.insert(bucket, v[n])
end
end
end
return bucket
end
Here's a test run:
> input={55,2,123,1,42,9999,6,666,999,543,13}
> output=radix_sort(input)
> for k,v in pairs(output) do
> print (k , " = " , v)
> end
1 = 1
2 = 2
3 = 6
4 = 13
5 = 42
6 = 55
7 = 123
8 = 543
9 = 666
10 = 999
11 = 9999
pool = string.sub(key, 1,1)
always looks at the first character; perhaps you meant string.sub(key, pass, 1)
