Re: Two Sort Challenges (Derek:Problem)
Hello again Derek,
I tried the sort routine on a large data set (8MB) and it did work,
but it seems to take a very long time to complete (3 mins) when
i use "upper_case_sort()" instead of "sort()". I think this is
because the 'sort' (either one) has to work on the whole data set
at once right?
If you care to divide the sort up into sections, where each catagory
is sorted individually, then the cat names are sorted, then reformat,
i think that would be much faster right? Each sort would then only
have to work on a small number of elements, including the sort on the
cat names. I guess there would have to be some way to keep the cat
names associated with their details section then too.
Care to modify it like this?
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
