If this is so, then any algorithm which uses the first value or the lowest value, or "any SIMPLE strategy" as the basis for deciding whether other records are tolerantly equal, runs the (theoretical) risk of excluding values that are within the tolerance of some theoretical "correct" value.
If that is the case, the right solution would indeed be to sort on normalized sequence values (as Oleg's approach) rather than implement "tolerant sort". -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
