Identify all numbers between two values

[kieran]

Hi,

If i have a start value (i.e. 920001) and an end value (i.e. 935000)
and i want to pick out every number between the two values and then,
for example, store it in an array. How would i go about this i.e.
identifying each integer value between these two values.

Thanks for any and all help.

kieran,
Have you tried a For loop?

Something like:

Dim values(935000 - 920001) As Integer

For index As Integer = 920001 To 935000
values(index - 920001) = index
Next

Alternatively you could use an ArrayList:

Dim list As New ArrayList
For index As Integer = 920001 To 935000
list.Add(index)
Next

Hope this helps
Jay

Dim arr As Integer()
Dim value1 As Integer = 920001
Dim value2 As Integer = 935000
Dim maxValue As Integer = Math.Max(value1, value2)
Dim minValue As Integer = Math.Min(value1, value2)

ReDim arr(maxValue - minValue)

For i As Integer = 0 To (maxValue - minValue)
arr(i) = (minValue + i)
Next


The above example is just that, an example. Quick and dirty with some
extra's thrown in just in case

HTH,
