How do I change the array to the correct format?

Solved!
Go to solution

I need to change the following array to be sorted in numeric order (right to left and from top to bottom) 

if you can't see the image the array is as follows

 

{[0,1,17,2,3,20,4,5,6,7,8,26,27,14,29,15]

[0,9,0,10,19,0,21,11,12,13,25,0,0,28,0,30]

[0,16,0,18,0,0,33,22,23,24,35,0,0,36,0,37]

[0,31,0,32,0,0,0,34,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]}  (sorry for those math people out there for the formatting)...

 

I need the array above to turn out as such

 

{[0,1,0,2,3,0,4,5,6,7,8,0,0,0,0,0]

[0,9,0,10,0,0,0,11,12,13,0,0,0,14,0,15]

[0,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30]

[0,31,0,32,0,0,33,34,0,0,35,0,0,36,0,37]}

 

Does anyone have some idea what I could do in LabVIEW that can sort this out?

Regards,

Mark

Try the attached code. Not sure if this would achieve your goal

What are you trying to do?  How does the new array relate to the old one?

 [ 0,31, 0,32, 0, 0,33,34, 0, 0,35, 0, 0,36, 0,37]}

 


This result does not look like it is "sorted in numeric order (right to left and from top to bottom)" in any recognizable way. It semes that the zeroes have a special meaning such that some out-of-order elements get replaced by zero and then inserted into the same column, but in a later row. The insert pont seems to be picked such that the row is sorted.

If you can explain the logic of how this is supposed to work we might be able to help you.

Hi Mark,

 

I dont know whether you have tried to solve this or not, but I did some practise on this. Please find the attachment.

I have tested it  with your example only so not sure about its full functionality.

If you have any question just reply me.

 

Kudos are always Welcome..... 🙂

Please add the quoted sample data to the control, make current values default, save the VI and attach it once more.

But what does it do?  It's very convoluted and no comments.

Sorry Everyone, 

I haven't had any time yet to test the solutions quite yet due to the holiday and I don't have access to my LV project and machine so I won't be able to check back in with you guys until Monday morning.

Regards,

Mark
