in reply to Out of Memory 2.

It may help if the sample code you provide was real code and you provided just enough sample input data with it that we can run the code.

As it stands there seem to be two misplaced print statements and at least one missing }.

It would definitely help if you were to break your solid text block into a number of paragraphs, especially where you are answering a list of questions or suggestions.

In some of your replies you speak in general terms of '"multiplying" the equations through' and go on to give simple examples, but not examples that would be parsed by your code.

Many of your replies are simply a regurgitation of material you have already given. You would save yourself and us a lot of time by simply referring to the previously posted material by linking to it with the PerlMonks [id://nodenumber] link mark up. For example your first Out of Memory post can be linked as [id://718318]: Out of memory..

Re^2: Out of Memory 2.

    Great ideas.

    I updated the initial post with the correct code.

    I updated the initial post to point to the data.

    There is also cleaned data in Re^6: Out of memory. and continued into Re^7: Out of memory. but it is the same data and also will require minor code changes.

    Part of the reason for the repeat is the question I originally asked isn't answered, but it might be my assumption that there is a single method for "paging" memory (i.e. database, file, etc) that is more common in PERL might be inaccurate.

      Are you being deliberately thick? If you don't read what we write and can't be bothered to answer the questions or respond to the suggestions we propose, how do you expect to get any answer that is of benefit to you?

      Let me reiterate:

      1. The code you posted can not run - it is syntactically incorrect.
      2. We don't want 64K of data. We want about 20 characters of data to exercise the code.
      3. The input data you describe is not the input data that the code you supplied parses (even if it could run).
      4. Learn to use paragraph tags to break your text up into chunks that can be parsed as a unit and that express a single idea or point of reply.

      Update it is conventional here to note substantive updates to your nodes with an update section (like this one). For those who came in late, the node to which this is a reply has been updated and the original node in this thread has been updated.

      Due to the excessive data you have provided in Out of memory. FireFox does not render it in a usable fashion for me. If there is any sample data of sensible size provided in that node I can not see it.
