Hey! Play fair. It only uses the loop, at least explicitly, to demonstrate that it has worked.

as Dan points out below, there is a hidden loop in your magic, and as you said there is a visible one you don't need, so your solution actually contains two loops, that's way too much.

That's why I explicitly said explicitly.

Hadn't thought about that. You're probably correct, although isn't that a form of looping? In fact, isn't it a double loop? Once on the way through getting the results, and again whilst unwinding the recursion stack?

Haven't seen a book yet that lists recursion as a loop construct; normally they only mention things such as for, while and do.
One must be careful, if the code is written in such a way that tail recursion is possible, then sooner or later (probably later) MS may come with a C# compiler that turns the recursive code into a loop, which to the OP (or his teacher?) would be unacceptable.
Going one step further, our computers execute loops all the time: fetch instruction, decode instruction, execute instruction; whether coded in micro-code or implemented in parallel hardware, each little piece is doing its job over and over. So maybe it can't be done? Or maybe yours is the solution they wanted...

this is a bad question ya know?
what is supposed to go in the dictionary?
I can only make some guess....
first you can't avoid a loop, so here woud be one
Rand r = new Random();<br />
foreach(var s in lst) dic[rand.Netx()] = s;
but maybe we could use some LINQ magic to hide the loop?
Random r = new Random();<br />
Dictionary<int , string> dic = new Dictionary<int , string>();<br />
dic = lst.ToDictionary <string, int>(s => r.Next());
How about that?!

StreamReader bfr = File.OpenText(@"D:\Documents and Settings\home\Desktop\normal.txt");
Dictionary < string , int > dic = new Dictionary < string , int > ();
string[] str = bfr.ReadToEnd().Replace("\r","").Replace("\n"," ").Replace(" "," ").Split(' ');
int var = 1;
foreach (string i in str)
{
if(dic.TryGetValue(i,out var))
dic[i]++;
else
dic.Add(i,1);
}
foreach(KeyValuePair < string , int > i in dic)
if(i.Value > 1)
Console.WriteLine(i.Key + " " + i.Value);
Console.ReadLine();

If I understand your question correctly, you want a List<string> which looks like this:
Value1
Value2
Value3
Value4
Value1
to be converted to a Dictionary<string, int> which looks like this:
{Value1, 2}
{Value2, 1}
{Value3, 1}
{Value4, 1}
The problem is that the first argument of ToDictionary should provide a method to get the key from the value. You want to get the value from the key, so ToDictionary probably won't help you here. You could probably create a LINQ expression which provides a collection of KeyValuePair<string, int>, but IMHO it may not be worth it. It may be quicker to just bite the bullet and use a loop - ToDictionary does this behind the scenes anyway.
However, if you really dislike looping, then try something like this:
var keyValuePairs = from string key in lst.Distinct() select new KeyValuePair<string, int>(key,
lst.Count(
(string str) => (key == str))
);
That should provide you with a list of KeyValuePairs. I'm not certain how to get those KeyValuePairs into a Dictionary, (maybe a cast or AddRange?) but it's a start.
Note: There may be syntax errors in that snippet; I wrote that in the browser, so the compiler hasn't done any error checking

You have no choice but to use a loop. Even if you wrote your own Dictionary class to handle incrementing the value every time the same string gets added.
You'll either be using a loop inside your custom Dictionary as you go through each item passed in by some kind of AddRange method, or you'll be using a loop to iterate over a list of strings to pass to your custom Dictionary's Add method.

Hey if someone could help me to understand how to fix this issue I am having I would greatly appreciate it.
Problem:
I am developing a c# application, in doing so the I am currently using application properties because I could not figure out how to use the xml method of storing and retrieving settings. Ultimately I would like to use my own xml file and not use system properties but I am in need of some training for that. I can be contacted on skype at mgassist or jollymansart. Back to the issue. I need to be able to programmaticlly update the property setting. I do not know how to programmaticlly update the system property. mgeorge@peerassistllc.com.
Here is what the xml file looks like from the application settings:

Hi
i created a web service to load some information from sql server 2005 database, it works good but it has very low speed to return data, wheras sql server load data without overhead. i think the decreasing performance occures in while loop, here is my code :
[WebMethod]
public List<InputOutput> GetAllInputOuts()
{
List<InputOutput> list = new List<InputOutput>();
using (System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["IOXPConnectionString"].ConnectionString))
{
using (SqlCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand())
{
cmd.CommandText = "select * from vLinkToDataSource";
SqlDataReader dr = null;
if (con.State != ConnectionState.Open)
con.Open();
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
while (dr.Read())
{
InputOutput io = new InputOutput();
io.Code = dr.GetInt32(2);
io.Name = dr.GetString(1);
io.Family = dr.GetString(0);
io.DateInput = dr.GetString(3);
io.TimeInput = dr.GetString(4);
io.DateOutput = dr.GetString(5);
io.TimeOutput = dr.GetString(6);
list.Add(io);
}
}
}
return list;
}
how to improve the performance ?
Note 1 : the sql server 2005 return results good.
Note 2 : almost 17000 records exists in database.
Note 3 : beacuse i want to use this web Service in sharepoint, i must return result as List<T>.
Any help would be great appreciated
|

|

So, you're returning all 17,000 records, adding them one at a time to the List<t>, then having the Web Method serialize the entire List<t> (will probably take a while), tranferring what amounts to megabytes of XML text, then having the client deserialize the entire list (will probably take a while, again)??
I think you biggest problem is trying to handle 17,000 records all at once. I'd probably want to limit the data I return from the database and reduce the dataset to only the data that is absolutely necessary at a certain point in time. What are you doing with all 17,000 records that you need to transfer them all?

Hi Dave
my goal is load all data into sharepoint via bussiness data catalog (bdc), it's finder method, then write another webMethod to find only data which matched to criteria, It's specific finder method.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, then I'd probably look at a caching solution on the Sharepoint side if your data doesn't change very often, or if your SQL Server is 2005 or above, some kind of solution to return the query as your XML dataset and returning that to the client.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks Dave
but, what's XML dataset ?
can u give me an example ?
thanks
|
|
|
|
|
I don't have any examples, but you can start your own research into it by Googling for "SELECT FOR XML".

I am experiencing difficulty trying to make a trackbar scroll when the middle mouse button/ball is clicked and scrolled.
I need the mouse scroll wheel to scroll up and down when it is clicked and reset the value to the middle when realised.
Does anyone know how this can be done.
