is there no shorter way codewise?

I actually choose an array to keep the code to the minimum, but with this I can rather use four normal variables like $number1 $number2 ...

Edit: Hint - I don't use 1,2,3,4 values for my application

Xibalba,

You can of course just redeclare the array when you know the values you wish to use: :)

Local $numbers[4]

Local $numbers[4] = [23, 65, 3, 88]
As to arrays keeping "code to the minimum" that rather depends on what you want to do with their contents. It makes it easier to loop through them using a For...Next or other loop but if all the elements are stand-alone there could well be little to be gained. A little more detail might help. ;)

It was an example ;)

Xibalba,

You can indeed skip that line - but you seemed to require it in your OP so I left it in. The main point is that you can redeclare an array whenever you wish - but you will overwrite the existing content when you do so. ;)

As I said before - a little more detail of exactly what you are trying to do might help. Just asking basic array questions is unlikely to get you a satisfactory answer - giving us a concrete case might well do just that. ;)

Where exactly are your variables coming from, there are a number of ways you can get an array, for example.

Local $aArray = StringSplit(FileRead("myfile.txt"), ":")

Where myfile.txt looks something like this.

var1:var2:var3:var4:123:ABC
