Hi. I'm interested in learning whether LiveCode is an appropriate tool for
introducing elementary school children to the field of computer science. Does
anyone know of any case studies, resources, or other leads along these lines?
Also, I'd be interested in knowing whether there are any other L
Hi.
Doesn't this depend on the nature of the task? For example, in your "repeat
until" experience, does the situation naturally call for a condition to be met,
and then a different action taken, that is, that the repeat end at that
specific time?
The construct:

Hi,
What is the best way to keep repeating a handler/function.
In the past I have placed a 'repeat until local variable = false' in the
handler to keep it repeating but I don't imagine this is the most efficient way.
Am I better off using the send option or dispatch ?
Any opinions would be appr
Step through the repeat loop by putting a breakpoint in your handler just
before the first repeat loop. Each time your handler changes an element in your
array, inspect the array to ensure what you expected is what you got. There
really is no other way to be certain you know what is in the array
Thanks Jacque. I can see where that may be useful. However, seeing that there
seems to be no difference in context between send and dispatch, at least by my
experiments, which I admit may have been flawed in some way if others get
different results than I did, I can just use dispatch for everyth
Hi John,
The problem is that order in which your array keys are being returned to
you is not in any sort of sequence.
I'm not quite sure of your needs but if you want the data to come back in
alphabetical order then:
put the keys of counterArray into tKeys
sort tKeys
repeat for each line rKey in
Actually you were partly right. The free account will save versions for only

versions forever.

I have used the csv function in Richard Gaskin's article, "CSV must die".
It works great on Google form data.

Has anyone done any tests regarding the size of a stack in terms of what

so if you are creating an app which references a lot of text and images,
you should link to them as external data.
