Hi all,
I have a sequnce called "data" and another sequence called "newdata"

data =3D {{"Primary Key","TOY43","Silca"}, {"Secondary =
Key","TOY44","Silca"}}

new data =3D {"Fuel Key","FK1","Silca"}

How can I add newdata to data to get the sequence data to be as follows

{{"Primary Key","TOY43","Silca"}, {"Secondary =
Key","TOY44","Silca"},{"Fuel Key","FK1","Silca"}}

Perhaps using the "append" feature. If so how?

4. Re: sequences

Hello,

Hawke' suggested:

  data = append(data,newdata)

another solution would be

  data &= {newdata}

Slightly shorter and maybe more readable. I don't
know about speed but would assume that &= would be
faster than append ()

just another suggestion,
Lewis Townsend

Several runs gave pretty consistently the following numbers:
ET 0.99  (append)
ET 1.44  ( &-{})

Hmm, that's interesting. I would have thought that an
operator doing a similar activity as a function would
be faster because of the routine calling overhead.
Maybe Rob C can clear this up?
I use the &={} construct a lot becuase it is quicker to
type and also assumed that it would be faster than a
function call.

later,
