analyzing a list for change …

anamaria — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 21:45:56 +0000

Hi, I have a big question:

How do I look through the above list and get a list of the positions where the value changes and also what the new value is?

A beginning attempt is made below, but then I ran dry for intelligent list objects that can do the job for me.
- anyone who have any clue what I can do?

Thanks a lot for your help!

I did an abstraction a little while back that analyses the make-up of a list and gives you some information about it.
It will give you sublists of the same elements, starting position, length and what the element is. It’s a bit more than what you are asking for but it might come in handy.
