I don't know if this is possible or not...

But, could a script output an array of text in order? i.e. a, b, c, d, e, f, g, etc., etc.

But to a large proportion? Like aaaaaaaa all the way to zzzzzzzz?

If it is possible, would the script have to include everything in between the sequences?

Thanks in advance.

Yes it is possible, maybe your talking about sorting?right?

**SessTehKing** · 04-04-2007, 01:48 PM

No...outputing an array of text. All the way from aaaaaaaa to zzzzzzzz.

i.e. aaaaaaaa, aaaaaaab, aaaaaaac, - aahilsne, aahilsnf - zzzzzzzy, zzzzzzzz

A lot of text, yea, but it'd be very helpful. Is that possible?

Well I have low experience at arrays seeing as I don't completely understand them yet but as far as I know about it you can eigther write it yourself in order or use something like sort (but i'm very unsure)....

Well I guess will spend my time right now looking it up for you

...

I will post back when I have some results....

LOL, I already found the answer -

How do:

aahilsne, aahilsnf

fit in this sequence:

aaaaaaaa, aaaaaaab, aaaaaaac, . . . , zzzzzzzy, zzzzzzzz

? In fact, how do you get from incrementing the last letter each time as in the first three entries to having all but the last letter incremented? Anyways, there might be a way to fit all that into a logical progression. For the time being there is this:

Code:

var theStrings=[];
var aString=[97,97,97,97,97,97,97,97];
var pos=aString.length-1
function buildArray(){
var str='';
for (var i_tem = 0; i_tem < aString.length; i_tem++)
str+=String.fromCharCode(aString[i_tem]);
theStrings[theStrings.length]=str;
}
function incString(){
pos=pos<0? aString.length-1 : pos;
aString[pos--]++;
}
while (aString[0]<122){
buildArray();
incString();
}
theStrings[theStrings.length]='zzzzzzzz';
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
for (var i_tem = 0; i_tem < theStrings.length; i_tem++)
document.write(theStrings[i_tem]+'<br>\n');
</script>
</body>
</html>

i.e. aaaaaaaa, aaaaaaab, aaaaaaac, - aahilsne, aahilsnf - zzzzzzzy, zzzzzzzz

The dashes signified "through"

That is close to what I need, thank you, but I need it with much more info...

I need it to go from aaaaaaaz to aaaaaaba, then continue from that to aaaaaabz, then go to aaaaaaca, etc., etc.

It'll be MUCH longer then that, but would be really helpful if that would be possible.

I know what you mean, but it sounds like a homework assignment to me...

Sometimes (always, actually) getting the answer via search engine will help. Pointlessly posting questions on forums gets annoying from time to time.

This is also a possibility:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
var test=["mike","jaen","lard","wavey","karyn","azulin"];
Array.prototype.arr_sort = function(it) {
	var n = this,x=Array();
	n.sort();
	for (var i=0;i<n.length;i++) {
		x.push(n[i]);
		}
	if (typeof it == "undefined") {
		return x;
		}
	else {
		return n[it];
		}
	}

var myArray = test.arr_sort();
alert(myArray[3])
</script>
