Slow Array Build. Can someone help speed this up?

I know this is not efficient, but I do not know how to fix it.  The file should always have 11 columns, but the number of lines will change.  Currently the file is over 6,000 lines, and 813k in file size

My Current process is to read the file into a 1D aray, then split each CSV like into seperate elements.  It takes about 1min to complete, which is too long for the GUI I want to build.

#include <array.au3>
#include <file.au3>
Dim $oneDarray
_FileReadToArray("C:\file.csv", $oneDarray)


Local $Array[0][11]

For $x = 1 to $OneDArray[0]
   _ArrayAdd ($Array,$OneDArray[$x],0,",")
   ;MsgBox (0, "", @Error)
Next

_ArrayDisplay ($Array)

wisem2540,

The _FileReadToArray function in the latest Beta versions will read your file directly into a 2D array. ;)

Wrote the wrong function name!

Why not try out:

#include <File.au3>
 
_FileReadToArray("C:\file.csv", $oneDarray, 1, ",")

? :)

That will only list files and folders in an array, not the contents of the file. :D

EDIT: Unless the beta version has this capability, if so disregard this. ;)

wisem2540,

How about posting a copy of the file so we can test? :)

I thought this would work too, but when I do an _Arraydisplay, nothing happened.

 

Try this:

_FileReadToArray("C:\file.csv", $oneDarray, 2, ",")

 

Brain failure! :D

 

I know I have my moments! yay, for old age! :)

MikahS,

The Beta _FileReadToArray does indeed have the required functionality - I just wrote the wrong function name. ;)

Good deal, thank you for clarifying Melba. ^_^

 

Mikah,

Your original solution worked...my Array was just the wrong size.  Thanks for the help.  I misinterpreted the meaning of the help file.  My mistake.

 

Glad to have helped. ;)

Actually, after more testing, I had one weird characters in one of the columns.  When I edited the file to post for you guys, it masked the issue.  Anyway, still fixed

No problem, if you have anymore questions relating to reading the file contents into an array post here, otherwise you can start a new topic if you hit anymore snags. :D
