Ajuda del Collabora Office 24.04
Provides a collection of methods for manipulating and transforming arrays of one dimension (vectors) and arrays of two dimensions (matrices). This includes set operations, sorting, importing from and exporting to text files.
No es poden utilitzar matrius amb més de dues dimensions amb els mètodes d’aquest servei, l'única excepció és el mètode CountDims que accepta matrius amb qualsevol nombre de dimensions
Els elements de matriu poden contenir qualsevol tipus de valor, incloent (sub) matrius.
Abans d'utilitzar el servei Array, la biblioteca ScriptForge s'ha de carregar utilitzant:
GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.loadLibrary("ScriptForge")
Carregar la biblioteca crearà l'objecte SF_Array, que es pot utilitzar per a cridar els mètodes del servei Array.
Els fragments de codi següents mostren diverses maneres de cridar als mètodes del servei Matriu (el mètode Append s'utilitza com exemple):
Dim arr : arr = Array(1, 2, 3)
arr = SF_Array.Append(arr, 4)
Dim arr : arr = Array(1, 2, 3)
Dim svc : svc = SF_Array
arr = svc.Append(arr, 4)
Dim arr : arr = Array(1, 2, 3)
Dim svc : svc = CreateScriptService("Array")
arr = svc.Append(arr, 4)
Because Python has built-in list and tuple support, most of the methods in the Array service are available for Basic scripts only. The only exception is ImportFromCSVFile which is supported in both Basic and Python.
El primer argument de la majoria de mètodes és l’objecte matriu a considerar. Sempre es passa per referència i es deixa sense canvis. Mètodes com ara Append, Prepend, etc. retornen un nou objecte array després de la seva execució.
Afegeix els elements llistats com a arguments al final de la matriu d'entrada.
svc.Append(array_1d: any[0..*], arg0: any, [arg1: any] ...): any[0..*]
array_1d: The pre-existing array, may be empty.
arg0, arg1, ...: Items that will be appended to array_1d.
Dim a As Variant
a = SF_Array.Append(Array(1, 2, 3), 4, 5)
' (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
Afegeix una nova columna a la part dreta d'una matriu bidimensional. La matriu resultant té els mateixos límits inferiors que la matriu bidimensional inicial.
svc.AppendColumn(array_2d: any[0..*, 0..*], column: any[0..*]): any[0..*, 0..*]
array_2d: The pre-existing array, may be empty. If that array has only one dimension, it is considered as the first column of the resulting two-dimensional array.
column: A 1-dimensional array with as many items as there are rows in array_2d.
Dim a As Variant, b As variant
a = SF_Array.AppendColumn(Array(1, 2, 3), Array(4, 5, 6))
' ((1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6))
b = SF_Array.AppendColumn(a, Array(7, 8, 9))
' ((1, 4, 7), (2, 5, 8), (3, 6, 9))
c = SF_Array.AppendColumn(Array(), Array(1, 2, 3))
' ∀ i ∈ {0 ≤ i ≤ 2} : b(0, i) ≡ i
Afegeix a la part inferior d'una matriu de dues dimensions una fila nova. La matriu resultant té els mateixos límits inferiors que la matriu inicial de dues dimensions.
svc.AppendRow(array_2d: any[0..*, 0..*], row: any[0..*]): any[0..*, 0..*])
array_2d: The pre-existing array, may be empty. If that array has 1 dimension, it is considered as the first row of the resulting 2 dimension array.
row: A 1-dimensional array with as many items as there are columns in array_2d.
Dim a As Variant, b As variant
a = SF_Array.AppendRow(Array(1, 2, 3), Array(4, 5, 6))
' ((1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6))
b = SF_Array..AppendRow(Array(), Array(1, 2, 3))
' ∀ i ∈ {0 ≤ i ≤ 2} : b(i, 0) ≡ i
Comproveu si una matriu d'una dimensió conté un nombre, un text o una data determinats. La comparació pot distingir entre majúscules i minúscules.
Les matrius d'entrada ordenades s'han d'omplir de manera homogènia, és a dir, tots els elements han de ser escalars del mateix tipus (elements Buits i Nuls estan prohibits).
El resultat del mètode és imprevisible quan la matriu s'assenyala com a ordenada i, en realitat, no ho està.
Una cerca binària es fa quan s’ordena la matriu, en cas contrari, simplement s’escaneja de dalt a baix ii els elements Buits i Nuls s'ignoren.
svc.Contains(array_1d: any[0..*], tofind: any, casesensitive: bool = False, sortorder: str = ""): bool
array_1d: The array to scan.
tofind: A number, a date or a string to find.
casesensitive: Only for string comparisons (Default = False).
sortorder: It can be either "ASC", "DESC" or "" (not sorted). The default value is "".
Dim a As Variant
a = SF_Array.Contains(Array("A","B","c","D"), "C", SortOrder := "ASC") ' True
SF_Array.Contains(Array("A","B","c","D"), "C", CaseSensitive := True) ' False
Emmagatzemeu el contingut d'una matriu de 2 columnes en un objecte ScriptForge.Dictionary.
La clau s’extreurà de la primera columna, l’element de la segona.
svc.ConvertToDictionary(array_2d: any[0..*, 0..1]): obj
array_2d: Data to be converted into a ScriptForge.Dictionary object.
The first column must contain exclusively strings with a length greater than zero, in any order. These values will be used as labels in the dictionary.
The second column contains the data that will be associated to the corresponding label in the dictionary.
Dim a As Variant, b As Variant
a = SF_Array.AppendColumn(Array("a", "b", "c"), Array(1, 2, 3))
b = SF_Array.ConvertToDictionary(a)
MsgBox b.Item("c") ' 3
Creates a copy of a 1D or 2D array.
svc.Copy(array_nd: any[0..*]): any[0..*]
svc.Copy(array_nd: any[0..*, 0..*]): any[0..*, 0..*]
array_nd: The 1D or 2D array to be copied.
A simple assignment of an Array object will copy its reference instead of creating a copy of the object's contents. See the example below:
Dim a as Variant, b as Variant
a = Array(1, 2, 3)
' The assignment below is made by reference
b = a
' Hence changing values in "b" will also change "a"
b(0) = 10
MsgBox a(0) ' 10
By using the Copy method, a copy of the whole Array object is made. In the example below, a and b are different objects and changing values in b will not affect values in a.
Dim a as Variant, b as Variant
a = Array(1, 2, 3)
' Creates a copy of "a" using the "Copy" method
b = SF_Array.Copy(a)
b(0) = 10
MsgBox a(0) ' 1

Dim a(1 To 10, -3 To 12, 5)
MsgBox SF_Array.CountDims(a) ' 3
Construir un conjunt, com una matriu zero, aplicant l’operador diferència a dues matrius d’entrada. Els elements resultants provenen de la primera matriu i no de la segona.

Apila tots els elements individuals d’una matriu i tots els elements de les seves submatrius en una nova matriu sense submatrius. Les submatrius buides s'ignoren i les submatrius amb un nombre de dimensions superior a un no s'aplanen.
svc.Flatten(array_1d: any[0..*]): any[0..*]
array_1d: The pre-existing array, may be empty.
Dim a As Variant
a = SF_Array.Flatten(Array(Array(1, 2, 3), 4, 5))
' (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
You can use the Flatten method along with other methods such as Append or Prepend to concatenate a set of 1D arrays into a single 1D array.
Next is an example of how the methods Flatten and Append can be combined to concatenate three arrays.
'Creates three arrays for this example
Dim a as Variant, b as Variant, c as Variant
a = Array(1, 2, 3)
b = Array(4, 5)
c = Array(6, 7, 8, 9)
'Concatenates the three arrays into a single 1D array
Dim arr as Variant
arr = SF_Array.Flatten(SF_Array.Append(a, b, c))
'(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
Import the data contained in a comma-separated values (CSV) file. The comma may be replaced by any character.
El format CSV aplicable es descriu a la pàgina Format comú i tipus MIME de l'IETF per a fitxers CSV (en anglès).
Each line in the file contains a full record (line splitting is not allowed).
However sequences like \n, \t, ... are left unchanged. Use SF_String.Unescape() method to manage them.
The method returns a two dimension array whose rows correspond to a single record read in the file and whose columns correspond to a field of the record. No check is made about the coherence of the field types across columns. A best guess will be made to identify numeric and date types.
If a line contains less or more fields than the first line in the file, an exception will be raised. Empty lines however are simply ignored. If the size of the file exceeds the number of items limit (see inside the code), a warning is raised and the array is truncated.
svc.ImportFromCSVFile(filename: str, delimiter: str = ',', dateformat: str = ''): any[0..*]
filename: The name of the text file containing the data. The name must be expressed according to the current FileNaming property of the SF_FileSystem service.
delimiter: A single character, usually, a comma, a semicolon or a TAB character (Default = ",").
dateformat: A special mechanism handles dates when dateformat is either "YYYY-MM-DD", "DD-MM-YYYY" or "MM-DD-YYYY". The dash (-) may be replaced by a dot (.), a slash (/) or a space. Other date formats will be ignored. Dates defaulting to an empty string "" are considered as normal text.
Consider the CSV file "myFile.csv" with the following contents:
Name,DateOfBirth,Address,City
Anna,2002/03/31,"Rue de l'église, 21",Toulouse
Fred,1998/05/04,"Rue Albert Einstein, 113A",Carcassonne
The examples below in Basic and Python read the contents of the CSV file into an Array object.
Dim arr As Variant
arr = SF_Array.ImportFromCSVFile("C:\Temp\myFile.csv", DateFormat := "YYYY/MM/DD")
MsgBox arr(0, 3) ' City
MsgBox arr(1, 2) ' Rue de l'église, 21
MsgBox arr(1, 3) ' Toulouse
from scriptforge import CreateScriptService
svc = CreateScriptService("Array")
bas = CreateScriptService("Basic")
arr = svc.ImportFromCSVFile(r"C:\Temp\myFile.csv", dateformat = "YYYY/MM/DD")
bas.MsgBox(arr[0][3]) # City
bas.MsgBox(arr[1][2]) # Rue de l'église, 21
bas.MsgBox(arr[1][3]) # Toulouse
Look in a one dimension array for a number, a string or a date. Text comparison can be case-sensitive or not.
If the array is sorted it must be filled homogeneously, which means that all items must be scalars of the same type (Empty and Null items are forbidden).
The result of the method is unpredictable when the array is announced as sorted and actually is not.
A binary search is performed on sorted arrays. Otherwise, arrays are simply scanned from top to bottom and Empty and Null items are ignored.
The method returns LBound(input array) - 1 if the search was not successful.
svc.IndexOf(array_1d: any[0..*], tofind: any, casesensitive: bool = False, sortorder: str = ''): int
array_1d: The array to scan.

casesensitive: Only for string comparisons (Default = False).
sortorder: It can be either "ASC", "DESC" or "" (not sorted). The default value is "".
MsgBox SF_Array.IndexOf(Array("A","B","c","D"), "C", SortOrder := "ASC") ' 2
MsgBox SF_Array.IndexOf(Array("A","B","c","D"), "C", CaseSensitive := True) ' -1

array_1d: The array into which the value will be inserted.
item: The scalar value to insert, of the same type as the existing array items.
