Hi,

Would it be possible to create a software programme that could work out if a number in a sequence is higher or lower than the previous entry. I think the the difficulty would be with the fact that I don't want to enter the values - just download them.

Once determined, the programme would then have to colour code each movement, say, green for up, red for down, and white for no movement.

I would be interested to know if anyone feels that this is do-able, and where I might go to commission it.

I'm a little confused as to the meaning of this. If you are talking about an array then you could just compare the new value to the last value in the list, then add the new value to the list.

Like (pseudocode)

Code:

if( newValue > values[ values.length - 1 ] )

{do whatever}

values.Add( newValue );

You might have to be little more specific here. From where is the new data coming? You want to download a list of values from a server? An applet?

Are you making a game? I guess one would need to know your environment/data structures to analyze feasibility of one algorithm over another.

Any more information you can provide would be helpful. Platform & environment/language requirements?

Hi Silversturm

thanks for your interest. The best way for me to explain what I need is to email you what I do manually, & email you the web site address so you can see where I obtain the data. I don't think I can post the website address on this forum so with your permission I'll do that.

Regards

Kevin

Yeah no problem. I can take a look and maybe come up with fresh ideas, though I may not be familiar with all the technologies you are using. Drop me a line at [email protected]. Laters.
