Searching Array For String ? Help ?

[mawright89]

I have a number of individual scripts which have result arrays ascociated with them. They have string "Pass" or "Fail" values. I want to search through the arrays quickly and return lets say a 0, or 1 depndant on weather any of the strings are of value "Fail".

Is there a quick way to search through arrays for a value without hanging if one of the array parts is empty?

Cheers

I'm not sure what you mean by "empty", but you can just use search() for this:

private index = search(myArray == "Fail")

will return the index of the first item that == Fail, or -1 if not found. There is an optional parameter for start, so you can do:

private index = -1

while(1)

index = search(myArray == "Fail", index+1)

if (index == -1)

break

endif

? index

endwhile

Which will print the indices of all the elements == "Fail"
