This can be a problem for trying to interweave deuterocanonical material in Esther and Daniel depending on how a particular text labels those verses and chapters. But I don't remember hearing anyone provide concrete examples of this actually happening. > > My aim is to be able to do a text comparison verse for verse, and so > assuming I have the mappings between each verse, can I take two lists and > work my way down...

For it, I first construct a list of all the refs in a versification, pull out ones that are encountered in the document, and report the "missing" ones. Not sure if that helps. Alternatively, I have http://www.crosswire.org/svn/sword-tools/trunk/modules/compare.py which compares two installed modules, verse by verse, to see if they are exactly identical in text throughout. Maybe one of those will help inspire your implementation. Or maybe not! caveat emptor: they may not have been updated for all the API churn over the past few months so things like .Error should be .popError and appropriate getter/setter should be recognized. --Greg > > int i, j = i = 0; > > while(i < passageLength & j < passageLength) { > if (v11nA[i] mapsTo v11nB[j]) { > output both verses > } else { > work out with of i & j is behind > then i++ (or j++) > } > } > > In the above, i and j only increment and j in particular doesn't jump > around.
