Either method will work with any sized array...

The first method iterates over each entry in the souce array and pulls out values that start with whatever we are looking for ie "R=" and puts them into a new array.

The second method works like this:
Create an array of integers that represent the indexes in the source array Enumerable.Range(0, argbintArray.Length)

In groups of 4 select every seconds index .Where(i => i % 4 == 1)

Select the items out of the source array at the identified indexes .Select(i => argbintArray[i])

Hopefully that makes sense. Try outputing the result of each step it might help clear up what is happening.

Without Linq then using loops like in first reponse by Nuri Ismail is the best approach.

WPF datagrid popup dropdown from from a combobox

I wanted to get ScrollIntoView(SelectedItem); and highlight the selected item when initialized (tried to manually set the item to the 21st record just for testing purposes). It works fine if I manually select the item but doesn't work if I manually try to set the initial selectitem. This is based onhttp://www.eggheadcafe.com/tutorials/aspnet/5af72df7-5b0b-4ac2-be96-e24127040bbf/wpf-datagrid-as-combobox-dropdown-part-2.aspx[^]

Please do not post complete programs like this; identify your problem and post only the code that is relevant. Members here do not have the time to read through this amount of code.

C# safe deployment (FOXPRO)

hello all,

I'm working on an application developped under FOXPRO, the problem is that the deployment procedure is so vulnerable, so that once installed, anyone could copy all its files and past them to another computer and the application will just work fine.

1. would you please advise what it could be done in order to grantee a safe deployment that it can't be duplicated

2. does the suggested process could be developed using C# knowing that the application is developed under FOXPRO

Thank you so much for your usual support

There's no guarantees, especially not in copy-protection. The only files that can't be copied, are the ones that aren't readable. One option is to encrypt the files, and decrypt them when you need 'em. Another option would be to hide a file on the system, and check for it's existence on start-up. If they forgot to copy the hidden file, you'll know that it's an "illegal" installation.

..but there's no guarantee. It'll be merely harder to copy the data, not impossible.

Indeed I can. The first step you need to do is to break the problem down into smaller steps. Here, it seems that your logic is - for any string, take the first character off it and put it at the end. Consider your edge cases - what happens if no characters are input? What about if only one character is input?

There you go - you now know what the problem is that you're trying to solve. Good luck.

thank you much Pete Smile | :)

in fact my real problem is :

I'm trying to implement Simplified DES (DES is an encryption algorithm )

on of the step to implement is Left Circular shift for every halve of the key
if the key is 1000001100

string h1 = 10000
string h2 = 01100

then do Left Circular shift by 1 , so 10000 will be 00001
and 01100 will be 11000

i need function to do that shift Smile | :)

I tried a lot, but there is no result Mad | :mad:

If you have to do a circular shift on a number why are you faffing about with strings?

There are plenty of examples on the web to do this. Here[^], for example.

There are loads of others though, simply search on c# circularleftshift.

because h1 and h2 is result from function that return string .

i will see if i can use another function , or convert the return data type .

What do you think text is? Text is a subset of binary. Anything that works for binary, will work for text...

AFAIK there is no built in function to do this.

It would be fairly easy to write your own, though.

Assuming an 11 character string. One way would be to reverse the string and then create a new string from the last 10 characters of the original + the last character of the reversed string.

There are loads more ways though.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
