Function: list ListXnotY(list lx, list ly);
Show what x list has that y list is missing.
<lsl> list ListXnotY(list lx, list ly) {// return elements in X list that are not in Y list
list lz = []; integer x; for (x = 0; x < llGetListLength(lx); x++) { if (~llListFindList(ly,llList2List(lx,x,x))) { ; } else { lz = lz + llList2List(lx,x,x); } } return lz;
} </lsl>
Example:
<lsl> list l1 = ["a","b","c","d"]; list l2 = ["a","1","b","2","c","3"];
default{
state_entry() { llSay(0, "X list has this in it, but Y list doesn't: " + llList2CSV(ListXnotY(l1,l2)) ); //will say: d }
} </lsl>
