Populating an Array with Values

[fredrs05]

Let's say I want to create a two-dimensional array...

arr(1 to 2, 1 to 2)

...with the following values:

arr(1,1) = a
arr(2,1) = b
arr(1,2) = c
arr(2,2) = d

What is the easiest way to do it?

I would like something like this:

It is a good practice to assign variants to array as this will give flexibility on the type of data you are going to use.

Hey AB33

That's fine, but what is the easiest way to assign values to an array, regardless of type?

i.e. is there a way to do it in one line instead of:

arr(1,1) = a
arr(2,1) = b
arr(1,2) = c
arr(2,2) = d

Below is a 7 x 50 matrix

I want to create an array with these values.

What would be the most efficient way of doing that?

You could use something like this, but you would need to refer to the elements of the array with arr(x)(y) and the array will be 0-indexed.

Why do you need an array for that matrix?

You could use string functions, eg Mid, to return the individual items.

Just remembered, here's another way to create a 2D array.
