Use Array.slice To Divide The Array Into Two Equal Sized Arrays?
Jul 21, 2011is this correct
var mid = math.floor((0 + array.length)/2)
from here you could use array.slice to divide the array into two equal sized arrays?

Array.slice() Not Creating An Independent Copy.
Mar 11, 2007Alright, am I missing something?
I create a 2D array like so:
var blah = [];
blah[0] = ['one', 'two', 'three'];
blah[1] = ['four', 'five', 'six'];
Then I *attempt* to create an independent copy based on all of the pages I have read that
said it was as so:
var copy_of_blah = blah.slice(); // does not create independent copy
var copy_of_blah = blah.slice(0); // nor does this
I tested it by immediately changing either:
blah[0][0] = '' // "one" is now ''
*or*
copy_of_blah[0][0] = '' // "one", is again, ''
And of course both reflect changes upon the other.
Is it possible to create an independent copy of an array without having to write a
function that dumps the contents into a new array?

Output Two Maximum Numbers Of An Array If They Are Equal?
Jun 20, 2010How can i output two maximum numbers of an array if they are equal?
var flower["roses", "violets", "buttercups", "daisies"];
var flowerAmounts[9, 8, 3, 9];
Output should be: The maximum amount of flowers is 9. There are 9 roses and 9 daisies.
Why Is The Callwhy Is The Slice Method Only A Method Of An Array Instance?
Jan 31, 2011Why is the callwhy is the slice method only a method of an Array instance? The reason why I ask is because if you want to use it for the arguments property of function object, or a string, or an object, or a number instance, you are forced to use Array .prototype slice.call(). And by doing that, you can pass in any type of object instance (Array, Number, String, Object) into it. So why not just default it as a method of all object instances built into the language?In other words, instead of doing this:
function Core(){
var obj = {a : 'a', b : 'b'};
var num = 1;[code]....
//right now none of the above would work but it's more convenient than using the call alternative.
}
Core('dom','event','ajax');
Why did the designers of the javascript scripting language make this decision?
Array Undefined After Setting Equal To Values Of Several <INPUT> Fields
Apr 7, 2009I keep getting <undefined> when I alert out the value of my array 'fadeimages1'. Using php/mysql I retrieve filenames from a directory and create <INPUT> fields to store the filenames. In the javascript portion of the code, I use getElementsByName() to retrieve all of the <INPUT> fields. I then declare an array, 'fadeimages1'. Next, using a for loop I try to copy the values from the <INPUT> fields into the array 'fadeimages1'. When I alert out the length and value variable for each <INPUT> field, I get the correct filename, but after trying to store the value into 'fadeimages1' array, I get value is <undefined> when I alert it out. BTW, the following code uses 'fadeimages1.push()', but I also tried 'fadeimages1[i]=...'. Both result in <undefined> values.

Merge The Two Arrays Into A Third Array
Mar 28, 2009I've been given two arrays:
arr1 = [1,8,9,12]
arr2 = [2,3,10,11,13]
My task was to merge the two arrays into a third array. Done, no problem, merged then sorted a new array. I understand there is a way to merge the two without using "merge" then "sort" functions. My reference material doesn't go into it, and I can't find an example of how this would work. I think there would be a way to do it using a for loop and then "push", but I could be way off.
Can anyone tell me how they could see merging two without using the merge then sort? And what would be the advantage to doing it this alternate way as opposed to using merge? Is there a case where it would be preferable? I'm so new at this that I can't fathom doing anything other than merge.
Declaring / Using Array Of Arrays
Mar 27, 2010(the "code" below is pseudo code, just to get the idea across)
Here's what I currently have:
var bill = new array[20];
var sam = new array[20];
var nancy = new array[20];
var Oscar = new array[20];
I'm assigning objects to them (ie Oscar[5] = new objLabel() This seems like a kluge, however. Here's what I'd like (again, pseudo-code)
var Objects = {bill:null; sam:null; nancy:null; Oscar:null};
var theObject = new Array of Objects[20];
// yes: i know that's wrong... and that's the part I'm having trouble with
so that I can do something like:
[Code]....
Just seems to me that keeping a single array of multiple objects is likely to be less error-prone than multiple arrays of single objects... But I don't have the syntax right... or can it be done in JS? If it's doable, would someone be kind enough to show me how to declare and access that example?
Passing An Array Of Arrays To Function
Nov 8, 2010I was having some trouble with 2D arrays (or array of arrays). Essentially, the array has 100 rows, with two columns. The first column of every row holds a name, and the second holds a sales amount. With the use of a do while loop, the user can continuously add up to 100 names and sales amounts. After all the information the user wishes to add is stored into the 2D array I'm attempting to pass that very same 2D array as a parameter to a function called printRow as can be seen in the code below: Note: the function call and the actual function are found in two separate javascripts.

Creating A New API - Use A Single Array Or Multiple Arrays?
Jan 8, 2011I have a choice when creating a new API that I would like other peoples opinions on. Do I use a single Array or Multiple arrays such as: array[1][1] = "ID[56]NAME[Hello World]START[10]"; OR
ID[1][1] = 56;
Name[1][1] = "Hello World";
Start[1][1] = 20;
The API is used for animations so is very heavy work, but would using around 15 multidimensional arrays be too much and a single one be preferable???

JQuery :: Submenu From Array - Function ToggleOptions Takes 3 Variables - Target - Array - State
Feb 15, 2011I am trying to understand somecode. I don't think I am understanding everything correctly. Can someone confirm or add to my understanding?
Here is the code, below is my explanation:
- CODE 1 - is saying if the the class subnav_dd is called on an anchor tag on a li, then make the function in the if statement "live". (Live in a sense binds the function to the condition, but unlike bind it allows the condition to be used more then once. ) So if the class subnav_dd is the parent, and has a class of .dis then prevent anything below it from firing. CSS - If code 1 is true, then I will only get the first li to fire, the remaining ones will not.
- CODE 2 - This one is a little tricky. Function ToggleOptions takes 3 variables (target, array, state). The condition is if the div subnav + target have siblings, then check to see how many siblings are there. Put the amount of siblings into an array, then check the state of each sibling. I don't completely the rest of it.
I think if the div subnav is called and something is found in the array then the class dis is either added or removed. Then what? I don't understand why I still need the else that adds a class to #subnav_ +.target

Sorting Objects Inside Of Multidiminsional Array For Main Array?
Apr 25, 2011I am really hoping someone is willing to take the time to read this post and take a minute to take a look at my code. What is happening is there are some matches for a script I made and then an area for segments during an event. If you notice on the segment part of the form is that there is a dropdown that asks for where in the event that segment needs to go. With the Introduction or the different numbered matches. What I need to happen for a subArray I need it to take the introduction, all the matches, and all the segments and order them accordingly. With the introduction first, the matches in order based off there match number and then the segments in between the introduction or matches based off the user's input.[URL]..

View 9 Replies View RelatedComparing Array Values To Select Unique Array Elements?
Apr 10, 2010This one is throwing me off! Either I am making a stupid mistake or I'm doing it totally wrong I have an array, and I am trying to select unique values from it and assign it to another array. Here is the code:
Code:
var flag;
for (i=0;i<=pdfs.length-1;i++)
{
flag = 1;
for (j=0;j<=pdfs2.length-1;j++)

The problem is that the if (pdfs2[j] == pdfs[i]) statement ends up never being true. There are URL's to pdf files in the array. On the other side, if there is a much easier way to select unique values from an array, please feel free to point it out.
Prototype To Sort An Associative Array On The Array Key (in Ascending Order)
Sep 1, 2010I am building a customised javascript prototype to sort an associative array on the array key (in ascending order). Basically, I am separating the array keys into a separate array and then using .sort() to sort the keys and then reassembling the original associative array elements according to the sorted keys array.
The sorting works ok except that when I run the test code below, the outputed sorted associative array has an extra element at the end of the array whose key is the name of the prototype function and the value for that element is the function code itself. Obviously I am misunderstanding something about associative arrays or how javascript prototypes work.

Take Data From An Array And Apply Each Array Item To An Element

**Caveat - this is not an area I have any real experience with**
My arrays look like:
Code JavaScript:
I then need to test for each, then associate with one of my fees arrays, then grab each of the values in the array and write those values to elements within my page.
I'm then doing this to evaluate for each degree
Code JavaScript:
I need to first figure out how best to import all of these 60+ arrays and then in each of my conditions pull out each value and write to my page.
There is a unique 1 to 1 relationship between each degree and array so I can't consolidate as the values for each degree differ slightly.
