--=======AVGMAIL-3FDEC7C46124======= ------=_NextPart_000_001C_01C3C40E.1DD52500 How much memory does a sequence use. for example how much memory is allocated for an empty sequence. And how much memory is used for a sequence of say 4 subscripts and is there extra empty memory being allocated. The reason I ask, is that I have a method similer to formula converting binary into decimal, to compress single words in a string to single integers in a sequence, then convert back to a string of words. Would this actualy save much memory for stored strings? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
