remove line from array if it contains .vss

[cookiemonster]

I have an array, and I want to remove all lines that contain '.png' in it, each line in the array contains something like 'C:folderfolderdog.png', so I need to be left only with only lines that do not contain .png

Can someone point me in the direction of how to do this to the array?

Best thing to do is check how your array is populated and avoid putting the data in it.

Checkout stringregexp in a "for loop". It is in the help file.

For the array you can use _ArrayDelete

For $i = 1 to $array[0] -1

if stringinstr($array[$i], "png") then

Arraydelete($array, $array[$i])

next

Agreed, but I imagine StringInStr will be quicker, or even StringRight.

Assuming the elements count is in $array[0]

For $i = $array[0] to 1 step -1
  If StringRight($array[$i], 4) = ".png" Then Arraydelete($array, $i)
Next

Loop backwards

This one should be faster, with only one redim :

Local $aList[10] = ["file1.txt", "file2.pdf", "file3.png", "file4.jpg", "file5.doc", "file6.png", "file7.rtf", "file8.png", "file9.zip", "file10.xlsx"]

Local $iIndex = 0
For $i = 0 To UBound($aList) - 1
    If StringRight($aList[$i], 4) <> ".png" Then
        $aList[$iIndex] = $aList[$i]
        $iIndex += 1
    EndIf
Next

Redim $aList[$iIndex]
