I want to validate 2 shuttle list selections for equality. for example
1:2:5:7:18:3
and
1:5:7:2:3:18
should be treated as equal and therefore valid(i.e. same selections but in different order)
while
1:2:5:7:18:3
and
1:2:18:9 are not equal and would fail validation.
If I use string_to_table() function on both lists then I would need to sort the associative arrays and then compare them for equality. Any suggestions on how best to do this?
thanks in advance
