Using the for each repeat structure

Hi Everyone, Can the "for each" form of the repeat structure be used to transform one itemized list into another? For example, if variable X = 2, 4, 6, I'd like to create variable Y as the square of the items of X, so that Y = 4, 16, 36. I tried doing this: Repeat

Re: file sharing (was: Misc. array, ...)

Hi Everyone, I think the idea of sharing stats routines is excellent, but if there's a reasonable chance that matrix functions might be incorporated into MetaCard, it might be useful to draw up a list of must-have matrix operations. If those martix functions come to be, then I suspect

Re: Using the for each repeat structure

You'll have to include a counter for the item numbers - as it stands now, you're putting 2^2 into item 2 of Y, 4^2 into item 4 of Y, and 6^2 into item 6 of Y (at least, that's what it did for me what it should do). This is because i is not the item number but the item itself. You could do

RE: replacetext and grep

i'll try again, why does put replacetext(y,"FONT.+$",tab) into y not work at all I'll step out on a limb here, anyone can feel free to saw it off if your knowledge of MetaCard grep is better than mine. The key issue here is that MetaCard's grep function is "greedy" what that means is

function help

Hi all, Does anyone know of a way to direct a function call to a specific object (stack)? Something like "put the myFunction() of stack myStack into foo". I've got a specialized substack, and I need to call a function in there from a stack higher up the message hierarchy. TIA Leston Drake,

Re: layers in groups

Thanks Kevin! Is it so that this 'relayerGroupedControls' is so new that it does not work with any older version of MC? I tried it earlier but had problems on the PC. Oh well, I made a 'work around' and the proj is sent for CD-printing already. Regards, Eva Kevin Miller wrote: On

Sockets Made Easy .. sort of

Since I have been mucking around with sockets (as others on this list have), I decided to make a simple stack that acted as both a client and a server and could send any data between the two. My current plan is to make it a stack that can act as a library so I can use it at either end and

Hi Simon, Here's where to find a downloader I created some time ago. It's similar to what you're talking about: http://members.home.com/phildavis/mc/downloader.mc (16K) http://members.home.com/phildavis/mc/downloader.sit (3K) Enjoy! Phil Simon Lord wrote: Can MetaCard play
