how to compare data before and after

[Tripoz]

i trying to grab data from website and seperate that in 5 $inputbox.

after that i will refresh that web n grab data again from it.

the problem is every im refreshed the data will change too, 

so how can i compare 5 data from before and after 

example :

data before: 1, 2, 3 ,4 ,5

data After : 3, 5, 7, 9, 1

i just want to check if the 1st number in data before (in this case is "1") is same or not with the second in data after (in this case = "5")

 

can anyone help with the example code or the function that i must use???

thx

You can use StringSplit to split the strings in two arrays and then compare the desired values of the two arrays

$aBefore = StringSplit("1, 2, 3, 4, 5", ", ", $STR_ENTIRESPLIT + $STR_NOCOUNT)
$aAfter = StringSplit("3, 5, 7, 9, 1", ", ", $STR_ENTIRESPLIT + $STR_NOCOUNT)

If $aBefore[0] <> $aAfter Then ...

hmm... i get the data from website n store it to 5 different INPUTBOX, how to compare it if the condition like that?

Show your code, please.

Show your code, please.
 

Func Bacamarket()
;local $ii
$url = "blablabla.com"

$html = BinaryToString(InetRead($url))
$oIE = _IECreate($url)
sleep(2000)
_IEAction($oIE, "refresh")
$html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE)
sleep(1000)
$res = StringRegExp($Html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)
sleep(5000)
Guictrlsetdata($Input26,$res[0])
Guictrlsetdata($Input27,$res[1])
Guictrlsetdata($Input28,$res[2])
Guictrlsetdata($Input29,$res[3])
Guictrlsetdata($Input30,$res[4])

sleep(1000)
;_IEQUIT($oIE)

EndFunc

As you get the results in an array you can compare directly the array elements
An example to show the concept :

$url = "blablabla.com"

$oIE = _IECreate($url)
$html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE)   ; get the first page
sleep(1000)
$res1 = StringRegExp($Html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)
sleep(2000)

_IEAction($oIE, "refresh")
sleep(1000)
$html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE)   ; get the new page
$res2 = StringRegExp($Html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)

If $res1[0] <> res2[1] Then ...  ; do the comparison

If it is only a string, you could use a Static variable as a temp holder, checking it with each call to the function, and changing the value of the static variable if it has changed.

how about if i want to looping that function..so it will compare likethis : "res1[0] with res2[0]".."res2[0] with res3[0]"..."res3[0] with res4[0]"...etc (endless looping) ?

thx

$url = "blablabla.com"

$oIE = _IECreate($url)
$html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE)   ; get the first page
sleep(1000)
$res1 = StringRegExp($Html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)
sleep(2000)
Wile 1
    _IEAction($oIE, "refresh")
    sleep(1000)
    $html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE)   ; get the new page
    $res2 = StringRegExp($Html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)

    If $res1[0] <> $res2[1] Then  
        ; do the comparison
    EndIf
    $Res1 = $Res2
Wend

Is this the goal ?

Should be the same as ""res1[0] with res2[0]".."res2[0] with res3[0]"..."res3[0] with res4[0]"...etc (endless looping) ?"

If it is only a string, you could use a Static variable as a temp holder, checking it with each call to the function, and changing the value of the static variable if it has changed.

an example how I do it in some my projects

expandcollapse popup

#include <ie.au3>
Global $url = 'blabla.com'
Global $oIE = _IECreate($url)
While 1
    _IEAction($oIE, "refresh")
    Sleep(1000)
    If _HTML_Compare($oIE) Then
        MsgBox(0, '', 'The same content')
    Else
        Switch @error
            Case 0
                MsgBox(0, '', 'Content changed')
            Case 1
                MsgBox(0, '', 'No content')
        EndSwitch
    EndIf

WEnd

Func _HTML_Compare(ByRef $oIE)
    Local Static $aRegExp_Static[5] = ['', '', '', '', '']

    Local $html = _IEDocReadHTML($oIE) ; get the new page
    Local $aRegExp = StringRegExp($html, '(?is)td\h*class="align-c\h*(?:small|big)">([^<]+)', 3)
    If UBound($aRegExp) = 5 Then
        If _
                $aRegExp_Static[0] = $aRegExp[0] And _
                $aRegExp_Static[1] = $aRegExp[1] And _
                $aRegExp_Static[2] = $aRegExp[2] And _
                $aRegExp_Static[3] = $aRegExp[3] And _
                $aRegExp_Static[4] = $aRegExp[4] Then
            Return 1
        Else
            $aRegExp_Static[0] = $aRegExp[0]
            $aRegExp_Static[1] = $aRegExp[1]
            $aRegExp_Static[2] = $aRegExp[2]
            $aRegExp_Static[3] = $aRegExp[3]
            $aRegExp_Static[4] = $aRegExp[4]
            Return 0
        EndIf
    Else
        Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    EndIf

EndFunc   ;==>_HTML_Compare

 

 

 

btw.

you are talking about 

how can i compare 5 data from before and after 

I now see that your RegExp is different - makes arrays with 2 elements, so my code is only a conceptual and need some work to do.
