Resize 2D array

Resize 2D array

Inputs an array as Variants and outputs Variant Numeric String and Boolean arrays containing the original and expanded or contracted to the requested size.

I would be interested in the comments of LV people as to whether this is a viable approach to polymorphism. The input array is converted to the output types at some considerable computational effort. However in a user interface situation programmer convenience (IMHO) greatly outweighs the time lost in execution.Download File:post-230-1133113101.zip

hi,

I guess you already know that you need LV Pro to create "real" polymorphic VI's

and that this is a way to do something similar.

This solutions seems to be rather memory-intensive, especially when using large arrays,

because you create 4 different arrays out of 1 variant array.

About your implementation:your performance/readability will improve if you would use

the "Get TDEnum from Data" from the OpenG-toolkit. It just gives you the datatype of the variant.

I haven't had the time yet to inspect what you are doing in the remove trailingzeros,

but I know that when using a general expression like e.g. 0*$ and then removing the last point

if the number appears to be an integer results in much more readable code.
