Subj : Re: largest memory block To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : Mohsen Date : Sat Mar 26 2005 06:50 am Dear Ed, Thanks for your valuable help. At the end I guess I should mension some important points. First I'm not storing things in one array. I want to get the block of memory and devide it into many arrays in which many categorized data are saved. Second Keeping things in memory is a necessity as it is important to perform elaborate mathematical operations on these data and saving them to disk in order to load them at another time greatly reduces the speed which is an influential factor in programs that analyse large scale structures(structural analysis).
