Hi, lst = {0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0}; Position[Partition[lst, 2, 1], {0, 1}] no loop, no pattern matching Regards Jens "Gang Ma" <contactmagang at gmail.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:dtjjcv$de7$1 at smc.vnet.net... | Hi, | I am working on a program to do the following: My data is a list of 0 | and 1. For example, {0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,0}. I want to find the | positions of all the pattern of {0,1}. In my previous example, the | first {0,1} is at 2 and and the second {0,1} appears at 7. I can | write a loop to do this, but I have several thousands such lists, | the computation will be time consuming using loop. | | My question is whether it is possible to use the pattern match to do | this quickly. If not for the list, do I need to convert the list to | string then use some pattern match for string? Thank you very much. | | regards, | | Gang Ma | | |
