Well, I'm working on a specialized "full" script for my channel and so I have yet another question.
I was planning on saving data in a hash file to track top 10 information on a large volume of data. The problem is that there isn't a command for sorting a hash table (we should have $hsort
). And, if I save the table, it saves on separate lines rather than item=data or something similar on one line. So, I can't just easily sort it with /filter.
I know I could run a script to put the item and data on one line, but that's time consuming (CPU consuming) for large amounts of data. I could also check all the items and sort that way inside the hash table itself, but that is also time/CPU consuming for large amounts of data.
So, my question is... what is a quick method to sort data that isn't likely to lag mIRC or cause huge CPU spikes?
Think of it like:
Item: Nick
Data: Score
