Hello.
I have some lists with 2 columns and almost 40000 lines of data.I would like to make a sequence that will read all those numbers from each column and then send the minimum and maximum values of each column into an object box in which i will later on scale them.
I will provide one of the lists,if anyone wants to make a question plz do,I am willing to help you as much as I can
in order to solve this!
Thank you in advance!

Hi!

You can dump your file, watch for the streams of numbers and determine minimum and maximum values with [minimum] and [maximum] objects. You can store intermediate results of those objects in [f ] object and bang them when the dump is finishes.

Check out the patch bellow.
