Subj : Learning arrays To : Mortifis From : echicken Date : Wed Jul 17 2019 11:02 am Re: Learning arrays By: Mortifis to All on Wed Jul 17 2019 11:09:38 Mo> var has_dup = false; This is not an array, so later when you do this: Mo> has_dup[i] = true; you're setting property [i] on a boolean to 'true'. Interestingly this doesn't generate an error, but it also doesn't store that property/value. Instead of this: var has_dup = false; you probably want this: var has_dup = []; Note that you're also declaring 'dups' twice: Mo> var dups=0; Mo> var dups; So by the time your script gets down to business, 'dups' is undefined and your 'dups++' won't work. (Just remove that 'var dups;' line.) Your nested for loop could be sped up a little bit: for (var n = i + 1; n <= lastuser; n++) { You've already dupe-checked all users up to i, and you want to start with users beginning at i + 1. This would also remove the need for the 'if(u.number == d.number) continue;' check. I could go on with some other suggestions, but I'll stop here for now. --- echicken electronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.com þ Synchronet þ electronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.com .
