hello monks,

I have an array which is joined by ';' In the next loop I get empty values I want to find the empty values and replace them by the one's obtained in the previous loop 

@first_loop=(1668;1733;60;32;3173;0;2517;58221;55764;0;0;0;0;Td;30720;
+1;9;25;0;2; Carry 0);
@next_loop=(1671;1661;0;0;;;0;0;0;0;;;;;;1;9;25;0;2; Carry 1);
