Examples
This example creates a one-dimensional array of five elements using ArrayCreate(), then shows the equivalent action by assigning a literal array of NIL values:
X#
Copy
1LOCAL aArray AS ARRAY
2aArray := ArrayCreate(5)
3aArray := {NIL, NIL, NIL, NIL, NIL}
This example creates an array of numbers and puts values in the elements:
X#
Copy
1FUNCTION Start()
2    LOCAL aArray AS ARRAY
3    aArray := ArrayCreate(3)
4    ArrayPut(aArray, 1, 1)
5    ArrayPut(aArray, 2, 10)
6    ArrayPut(aArray, 3, 100)
