Hi all,

I'm not sure if that is the write word

i want to have a range of charters ( like some ones name)

and be able to go through every possiblity of each Charter

I am trying to write code that will go through each

a
b
c
aa
ab
ac
aaa
aab
aac
aba
abb
abc
aca

and so on

but only with the Char I parse into a string

Anyone got any ideas?

Google necklace generating algorithms. Personally I like n-ary trees for this type of algorithm where the data structure itself generates the necklace. Check out my bridges of konigsburg article to steal an tree structure that will do it.

Put the characters into an array and then make all the indexe permutations. Smile | :)

It's not difficult but you have to formulate the question in a more accurate way, i.e. I think that the sequence you gave it's not correct (or I cannot guess correctly what do you want to do...)
I mean, you include

aa
ab
ac

but not

bb
bc

and

cc

that, I think, are legal sequences.
Moreover, do you consider

ba

and

ab

the same sequence or not?

Finally, I repeat, be more accurate in your request (or explain me what i cannot understand...)

Smile | :)

you are correct sorry it slipped my mind when i was giving the example

a
b
c
aa
ab
ac
ba
bb
bc
ca
cb
cc
aaa
aab
aac
aba

and so on

If it were numbers it would just be X=x+1 but in strings i cant figure it out.

in fact, more difficult (at least to me) then I expected. But finally (with a bit use of recursion):

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
  perms("abc");
  Console.Read();
}
public static void perms(string s)
{
  for (int iDigits=1; iDigits<=s.Length;iDigits++)
  {
    recurse(s, "", iDigits, 0);
  }
}
public static void  recurse(string sOrig, string sCur, int iDigits, int iLevel)
{
  iLevel++;
  for (int i=0; i<sOrig.Length;i++)
  {
    string sNew =sCur+sOrig[i];
    if (iLevel == iDigits)
    {
      Console.WriteLine(sNew);
    }
    else
    {
      recurse(sOrig,sNew, iDigits, iLevel);
    }					
  }
  iLevel--;
}

Hope that helps.

P.S. I made a try with perms("abcde") and it runs (the correctness check is up to you...) Smile | :)

Thanks so much for your help

im still strugling to grasp the code

I'm having trouble getting it to run

the "for (int i=0; i"

line is giving errors

usually it would be for (int I=0: i<10;i++) or something like that but I'm not sure exactly what its supposed to be

i will start playing with it in the hopes i can get it working but if you wouldn't mind letting me know what its supposed to be i would be interested to see if i got it right

and again thanks for your help

Last night was a bit late. The fixed line follows:

for (int i=0; i<sOrig.Length; i++)

Let me know if there are further troubles.

DataViewGrid and dates

crzyank8-Mar-07 9:51

Hi,

I have DataGridView in my application connecting to Oracle DB. Oracle table has a date as '03/12/2007' and same is returned to the front end via DataSet. However when this dataset is bound to the grid, the date displayed is '03/11/2007'!!! Similarly all the dates that have two (2) digit days (from 10 to 31) are reduced by a digit! e.g. instead of '03/30/2007' it shows '03/29/2007'. If I do not use any formatting for the .DefaultCellStyle property then the date displayed is '03/11/2007 11:00 PM'. Dates with single digit days i.e. '03/08/2007' stays the same though - with or without formatting. Please note that my SQL statement truncates the date to short date format - TRUNC(pay_date) - already.

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks.

You could try and just use text straight from Oracle and use it as string. If you are using a strong typeing thi might not be possible.

Thanks for the response. I am doing this project with the Compact framework.
I am not sure how this will help me set the Control Panel -> Regional Settings for different Languages->Cultures using C#/C++.
I Would also be ok with finding a DLL that I could connect to, to use some method within that would help me set the regional values.

GetHostEntry Resolves a host name or IP address to an IPHostEntry instance.

Null reference exception

8-Mar-07 7:48

Hi,
when i run this code i get a null-reference exception at the last line of code. I don't know why this happens, because i first add the node and it IS there. I looked in the debugger.
Does someone know a solution?
<code>
foreach (DateTime d in daten)
{
if (treeView1.Nodes.Find(d.Month.ToString(), false) != null)
{
treeView1.Nodes.Add(new TreeNode(d.Month.ToString()));
}
treeView1.Nodes[d.Month.ToString()].Nodes.Add(new TreeNode(d.Date.ToShortDateString()));
}
</code>

Re: Null reference exception

Edmundisme8-Mar-07 8:32

It will be easier to see what's going on if you break out that last line of code as follows:

TreeNode node = treeView1.Nodes[d.Month.ToString()];
TreeNode newNode = new TreeNode(d.Date.ToShortDateString());
node.Nodes.Add(newNode);

This will allow you to check state as you step though in debug mode. When you put so much into a single line, it can be much less obvious what is breaking.

if d is null from daten then d.Month will fail;

Also, treeView1.Notes[someString] may return null as well but it is most likely the d;
