Re: [U2] Array Types
That answer would require a book. Simple read, use a field, discard - prob. no difference or a net loss in performance since a MAT READ must parse all @AM marks during read operations. If you work with multiple fields in a record, the performance gain increases with #users , #records since you do not rehash attribute positions when working with the record. It's already done during the MAT READ operation, maintaining attribute positions for you. The savings while working with large records will be obvious to a single user within a single program. The net savings on a multi-user system over the course of a day can be huge. Again, look back in the prior posts... processes that would take hours to days were reduced to seconds. There are program examples, run-time results, records-per-second figures and technical descriptions. DIM arrays are not for nostalgia or some sentiment throw-back... they are there for real and important reasons. An example in Universe... create a record of 10,000,000 bytes and edit the record. Performance is amazing, after the initial read/setup. Try scrolling through the data using a program and a dynamic array and see what you get! :-) You will get bored waiting for the display to refresh after a few dozen pages. ... david ... David L.

Re: [U2] trimming a list (a test of your ability)
Nope; Has to do with how systems handle system delimiters. Dynamic arrays maintain pointers to attribute locations, but not the @VM pointers. The system already has buffering, memory management etc. for string manipulation. However, what makes it fast is the routine makes use of 1,000 different memory locations, each being vastly smaller than the final resulting record. Each element of the array is smaller string, resulting in less paging, heap manipulation etc. The following example uses ONE variable instead of the previous 1000; Execution time is 21.735 seconds compared to the prior version: 3.75 seconds 01:D.ARRAY= ; START.TIME=TIME() 02:FOR PTR=1 TO 100 03: GOSUB H.ADD; * add to array 04: !

The runtime maintains a pointer to *your current attribute*, as I understand it. Not to *each* attribute location. One buffer location, not a thousand. If it maintained a pointer to *each* attribute location, you could jump around in the variable at random and has access as quick as a dimensioned array gives you. But I believe that is not the case. By-attribute insertion is quick *only* because you are always inserting at the current position (or the next). Change this to a locate with insertion and it should dramatically slow down. This is because the entire string is being picked up and put down on each insert. The whole string. I think in the case of insertion at the end (the current position) it doesn't actually pick up and rewrite the whole string on each append.

Subject: [U2] Monthly Multivalue Inserts and Speed
I have a file that is taking a very long time to update, seemingly longer and
longer each month. Here is briefly how the attributes are organized, a
relatively simple example:
Attribute 1 is multivalued with our G/L Period, i.e. 12-01 vm 12-02 vm
12-03 etc.
Attributes 2 through 30 are dependent on attribute 1 and contain a variety of
dollar amounts that are accumulated for the respective period in attribute 1.
At the end of each month, a new G/L Period is inserted into the multivalued
position of attribute 1 as well as each of the respective multivalued positions
in attributes 2 through 30. Nothing complicated.
My question is this and is aimed largely at the technicians at Rocket ...
If, at the beginning of the year, I were to insert each of the 12-periods into
their respective multivalues in attribute 1 and insert respective null
multivalues into attributes 2 through 30, thus performing all of the 'inserts'
at once, will the processing each month run faster as numbers are simply
accumulated into attributes 2 through
30 and no inserting of new multivalues will have to be performed?
A couple nuggets of information:
This is only an example. In the actual file, these records contain many other
attributes and the records overall are relatively large, averaging lengths of
about 3,000 according to FILE.STAT
These are not my files so reorganizing them is not an option.
The heart of this question is, as a (numeric) number is accumulated in an
attribute, multivalue or subvalue, what causes the record to 'stretch' in
length, thus presumably impacting performance?
I would like to think that numeric information is stored in a more 'compact'
method than strings, thus using less space within the database ... but what I
'like' and what 'is' are often quite different.
Thanks!

I use PQN PROCs regularly, including indirect buffer references (subscripts)
and select buffer manipulation, UniData and UniVerse do have significant
differences though. MV for primary and secondary input and output buffers is a
staple, but sometimes the older style A\ and similar become invaluable.
PROC on!
The Jonathan Sisk references are a good start, I learned on Reality way back. I
do recall a PL system being written in PROC at one time - and no, The
explanation why is too improbable to believe, so I'll spare you.

PQN procs are supported in unidata for sure. Just wasn't sure if the
conversions on the MV command work there.
You can use the universe proverb documentation as a starting point for
working with procs in unidata, but there are a lot of differences, including
some fundamental ones. For example, both PQ and PQN proc on universe use
attribute marks to delimit fields in the buffers, but PQ proc in unidata uses
the standard space delimiters.The universe proverb manual doesn't
mention conversions on the MV command

Hi Ed,I am pretty sure that PQN procs are supported in Unidata, I have never
used them or seen a manual for them. Like you I have not found anything in
the udtdocs that addresses Proc eitherKebbon

I don't know if unidata supports this (has anyone ever seen a unidata proc
manual?) but in PQN proc on Reality, the MV command can apply a conversion:
MV
Purpose
To copy data between the input buffer, output buffers, file buffers and
select registers.
Syntax
MV destination source{,source}...{,*{n}}{,_}
or
MV destination source{*source}...
Syntax Elements
destinationis a direct or indirect reference to a buffer or
select register that you want the data copied to. If the destination is a
select register, the source can only be a direct or indirect reference to a
file buffer.
source is the data you want to copy. The source can be:
* a direct or indirect reference to a buffer or select register that
contains the data you want to copy.
* a direct or indirect reference to a buffer followed by
';input-conversion;' or ':output-conversion:'. See the topic English
Conversions for details.
*a string of zero or more characters enclosed in single or double
quotes. An uneven number of quotes now gives a syntax error.
*a SYSTEM function that returns system/database information.
* a single character expressed in one of two ways:
Xxwhere x is a hexadecimal number in the range 00 to FF. Thus, XFD is a
value mark.
In where n is a decimal number in the range 0 to 255. Thus, I253 is a
value mark.
,* copies all source parameters starting with the
specified parameter. The destination buffer or select register is truncated
after the last parameter is copied if * is the last operand in the source
field.
,*n copies n further source parameters following
(and in addition to) the specified parameter.
,_ specifies that the destination is truncated
after the source is copied.
*source concatenates
