Re: Fw: Array Empty Slots

I think you ll need a secondary data structure (maybe another array - 
but I prefer a linked list) to flag or store something that could to 
index your main data structure (your array).

Of course, you ll need to feed the secondary structure -- The main 
question: WHERE ? If you could answer this question maybe our can 
suggest you some ways.
