Problem: I have a long list of several thousand lines. Each line contains two comma-separated numbers. I want to divide the first item of each line by one divisor, and divide the second item of each line by a different divisor. The list order must stay the same.
Example: Using 2 and 5 as divisors... 10,10 12,15 8,12 would become 5,2 6,3 4,2.4 Options: Using "repeat with n=1 to num of lines" takes far too long. Using "repeat for each line L" either attempts to modify read-only data, or is only 25% faster using a dumping variable. Using split/combine will mess up the ordering (numeric array keys are not sorted numerically with combine). Any other ideas?
