Rob and Hawke, Speed isn't every thing. Remember what Rob said earlier. If the sequence is big you are going to use a lot of memory forcing Euphoria to use virtual memory which is much slower. And While Rob's latest one is faster than is other one it still needs that memory. You will have a second sequence of pointers. 24 + 4 * length(s) bytes of memory wasted. Actually Rob since Euphoria will only allocate pointer, unless it is a sequence of integers then you would probablely be better of writing it in C and do the pointer copying that way. Now play nicely. -------------------- Sincerely, Mathew Hounsell Mat.Hounsell at Excite.Com Brain Washing : "Strings are good. Strings are your friends.
