Title: RE: [GENERAL] sort array optimisation in pl/perl

Hi,

thanks for this help.

The method functions great but the profit of time is good just if I have a lot of elements to deplace.

can you give us more details on this particular sort order?

it all depends on the expected sizes of your arrays, but perl has
some nice array operations, such as slices and splice()

these come to mind:

$x=$arr[$m+1];@[EMAIL PROTECTED];$arr[$n]=$x;

or:

@arr[$n..$m+1]=($arr[$m+1],@arr[$n..$m]);

gnari
