# Mathober2024_Potential

# ArrayRankFul

For the 14th piece of **Mathober2024**: ***ArrayRankful*** takes the rankings of various arrays and shows the **Potential (4th prompt of this year Mathober)** of these rankings to make sound while coded in ***SonicPi.*** Then remixed for further potential sounds.

## Poetry

```ocaml
The Array and its List
Wants to Be Seen, Wants to Be Heard
They don’t mind to be Absurd
As The Power That Their Voices
When combined can live as rejoices 
Will it Be Able to Move Mountains Or At Least a Tree
That is the Wish From the Array List and the sounds they breathe
```

```ruby
def ranking(arr)
  
  #sort the array
  sorted = arr.sort.uniq
  
  ranks = Hash.new
  
  count = 0
  
  #this goes through the array and makes a hash for the array to be called upon late
  while count < sorted.length
    ranks[sorted[count]] = count + 1
    
    count += 1
    
  end
  
  rankings = []
  
  count2 = 0
  #going through the array to get the proper number in the ranking
  while count2 < arr.length
    
    rankings.push(ranks[arr[count2]])
    
    count2 += 1
  end
  
  #returns the ranking of the original array
  return rankings

#the audio part takes the ranking and then turns it into audio
