Non-recursive function that combines the values of two lists into one, without duplicating values.
Sample Input:
MergeLists (
"tom¶dick¶harry¶"
; "tommy¶tom¶wally¶"
) |
|
Sample Output:
| "tom¶dick¶harry¶tommy¶wally¶" |
|
Description:
Warning: Only good if fewer than 1,000 values match between the lists.
Having been needing this some time and looking at AddLists, I decided to create a non-recursive function that accomplished the same thing.
This function translates the character returns separating the values into bracketed parameters for a Substitute statement. An Evaluate statement reads the Substitute statement that prevents duplicate values.
A test combining two lists with 10,000 values each took 10 seconds to complete. By comparison, AddLists took 20 seconds.
