in reply to Re^4: Date Array Convolution
in thread Date Array Convolution

it is possible for the smaller duration one to have a lower value.

So for

111111111111111111111 6666666

The smaller interval would vanish completely because it has a higher value than the overlapping interval?

    Correct, because the smaller duration window has a higher value, the longer lower value would take priority and effectively completely remove the shorter window.

      Hm. That's a curve ball for my adjacent pairs method.

      I'd need to retain knowledge from the previous cycle in order to conditionally discard the shorter interval.

      Need to thunk some more now. (Thunk! Thunk! Twang!).
