max value lower than Y

[alpol]

Hi all!

Can someone help me find the max value lower than another value in an array?

example:

20   35

30   48

45   70

if I need the max value under 50, the biggest value would be 48. the value 70 would be ignored or taken out of the array...

Any help?

Thanks in advance and happy holidays

hi

what you need is a sorting with a double condition :

if y(i)>y(i+1) AND < limit  then keep y(i)

it's easy to implement, depending upon the size of the graph the approach is more or less costly. if the array are veeery big make a search on the forum, there are some examples.

N

This should do the trick.  (BTW - OpenG has a VI that'll replace my For Loop, as well as a ton of other VIs that can help.)

Without a loop, you can also do it this way

Thanks

I was going in circles and it was very simple... This is howdid it

 

 Maybe yous is better,jcarmody but I need the array intact to know the element position in the array

Any idea how I should know what index the value has in the array to identify the position of the value?

Now I need to know what

I am reading this line the 4th time. a bit complex for me. ok did you check out the idea i suggested? the output of the array max-min will give you the index value as well.

Check out the vi attached

Do you mean the vi doesnt work for you???

Or do you mean to say the array you are getting is a 2d one?
