Hi
I have a txt file which I roughly have a sense of how to read as
lines, followed by a tokeniser which breaks each line by a comma or
space. After that, one of my 'parts' in each line needs to be further
broken down. It's actually a series of doubles seprated by a space
rather than a comma which is used for the first tokeniser. I want to
cycle through each value in this array and use the value to drive the
angle of a pie segment but I am not sure how to cycle through
arrays....I'm not really sure about the difference between arrays and
lists.
my data is in the following format:
...
Canada Lynx,2400.0,75.0,15.0,0.0,0.0,10.0,0.0
Mountain Lion,4000.0,75.0,15.0,0.0,0.0,10.0,0.0
Siberian Tiger,1200.0,75.0,15.0,0.0,0.0,10.0,0.0
...
and the code I'm having trouble wrapping my head around...
For Each line As String In lines
Dim parts As String() = line.Split(",".ToCharArray())
Dim label As String = Convert.ToString(parts(0))
Dim area As Double = Convert.ToDouble(parts(1))
Dim pie As String = Convert.ToString(parts(2))
Dim pieValuesStr As String() = pie.Split(" ".ToCharArray())
Dim pieValuesDbl As New List(Of Double)
How do I assemble a list of doubles for each pie that I can cycle
through? I figure this an easy one but my inexperience with VB is
throwing me off....
thanks!
