PHP Coders. $30 PayPal first Person who posts...
 

The code for an easy script.

Details.

I need a script that will build a list of character strings and have these variables.

& = any letter a - z
@ = any number 0 - 9

So if I input &&& it would build a list that looks like.

aaa
aab
aac
aad
...
...
zzz

If I put @&& it would build a list that looks like.

0aa
0ab
0ac
....
....
9zz

Also want to be able to add letters or numbers in combination with the variables. So if I put @89&& it would build a list that looks like.

089aa
089ab
089ac
.....
.....
989zz

Doesn't need a fancy interface just tell me where I need to change inputs in the file and where to specify the output file and that's it.

When you post leave your PayPal addy. As soon as I get it to work I'll send you payment. Feel free to bump :)

you wan tot control how many you get in the list

I should add. The first person who posts working code that does exactly what I need.

No. I want it all :)

Bump!!!!

good luck on getting that for 30 I wouldnt waste my time doin that for 30 bucks sorry

Give me a minute

lotta code for 30 bucks

bump it to 100

my thoughts exactly

I keep hearing that. If it's alot of code how long would it take for someone to code it. In all honesty I figured someone would have had it posted by now.

if no one calls on this i could make it. will take about 1h.

and by "any" you mean random, right?

I read your post wrong, I listed code for an easy A-Z index. Haha, sorry. I will add the correct code in a minute

I should have specified the random part. Should build the list in sequence. from A- Z and 0 - 9.

I figured $30 was reasonable guess not. ICQ me if you want to do it 265054864

btw that "any" was confusing, its not any nor random, its from 0 to 9 & from A to Z
by your example

yup,

ok gotta load my icq 1 min

That's right.

If slap does he gets it. Add me anyways though, I always have little things like this that need to be done.

just did a quick assesmnet and htis is a pretty complicated request for $30

holographs got it.

Thanks.

damn good job man

Well he's working on it. Didn't realize it was that complicated. It would suck if someone worked on it only to post a few minutes later and get nothing.

Quite a useful exercise: might give this as a problem to people we interview for coding jobs. Here's what I just knocked up - had 10 minutes to kill before the paper shop opens - just in case anyone else is in need of a similar morsel of code. No guarantees: it's worked a couple of times. Could be improved as well - the obvious one would be to have it cope with an arbitrary number of ?s and @s.

<?
// Template
$template = "?0?@";
$fn = "/tmp/test";
// Work out limit variables
$ll = array();
$ul = array();
$cp = array();
$ix = 0;
for ($i=0; $i<strlen($template); $i++) {
if (substr($template, $i, 1) hahahaha '@') {
$ll[$ix] = 48;
$ul[$ix] = 57;
$cp[$ix++] = $i;
} elseif (substr($template, $i, 1) hahahaha '?') {
$ll[$ix] = 97;
$ul[$ix] = 122;
$cp[$ix++] = $i;
}
}
// Output to file
$fp = fopen($fn, "w");
for ($i0=$ll[0]; $i0<=$ul[0]; $i0++) {
for ($i1=$ll[1]; $i1<=$ul[1]; $i1++) {
for ($i2=$ll[2]; $i2<=$ul[2]; $i2++) {
$template = substr_replace($template, chr($i0), $cp[0], 1);
$template = substr_replace($template, chr($i1), $cp[1], 1);
$template = substr_replace($template, chr($i2), $cp[2], 1);
fwrite($fp, "$template\n");
}
}
}
fclose($fp);
?>

ok so i should still keep workin gon mine then, i just thought holographs was a damn super genious, i am going to get head bbl

Oh, for fuck's sake, the BBS software appears to have replaced = = (remove the space) with hahahaha in the if.. and elseif.. lines.

--Dave

yes it take some time to think how to make this..:)

You can work on it if you want to but holographs got the cash.

Nice work Dave.
