[REBOL] Interleaving of strings question Re:

From: grantwparks:ya:hoo at: 25-Sep-2000 5:33

Since we want them sorted, we're talking about their relative distance from an origin ( 0,0,... ). So it became (x1 to the nth + y1 to the nth) < (x2 to the nth + y2 to the nth)... If one of you great REBOLs would show how to do this using all the niceties of series! traversal I would appreciate it; I know my version is a pretty sad procedural version: coord-sort: func [ a b /local sum1 sum2 ] [ sum1: 0 sum2: 0 dimension: length? a while [ not tail? a ] [ sum1: add sum1 power first a dimension a: next a ] while [ not tail? b ] [ sum2: add sum2 power first b dimension b: next b ] sum1 < sum2 ] --- [grantwparks--yahoo--com] wrote:
