Since there appears to be no discussion dedicated to SNOBOL4
I was wondering if anyone here might be able to help.
I have a program that has a table using strings as the indexing
element. After the complete table is built, I work through another
file looking for matches in the table. It works great but is
taking more memory than I want it to. Is there some way to
free a single table element once I am finished with it? Is
there a way to clear the entire table?
I thought that
TABLE<index> = NULL
would free the memory during the next garbage collection.
I also thought that
C = TABLE()
would clear the entire table "C" and begin it fresh.
Does anyone know for certain?
