Find max index number in array

[Noobster24]

Hi,

i got this array: $Links1 or $Links2 or $Links3 and i want to find the max index number.

Like this:

$Links1[0] = 'hi'

$Links1[1] = 'hadf'

$Links1[2] = 'adsfdsfhi'

$Links1[3] = 'dfljaleuhi'

So i want to get the number 3...

I checked the helpfile for _ArrayMaxIndex and _ArrayMax but they doesn't give me the result i want, i'm probably coding it wrong ...

Like this example:

#include <Array.au3>

Dim $Links1[4]
$Links1[0] = 'hi'
$Links1[1] = 'hadf'
$Links1[2] = 'adsfdsfhi'
$Links1[3] = 'dfljaleuhi'

MsgBox(0,'Max Index String value',_ArrayMaxIndex( $Links1, 0, 0))
MsgBox(0,'Max Index String value',_ArrayMaxIndex( $Links1, 0, 1))
MsgBox(0,'Max Index Numeric value',_ArrayMaxIndex( $Links1, 1, 0))
MsgBox(0,'Max Index Numeric value',_ArrayMaxIndex( $Links1, 1, 1))
MsgBox(0,'Max String value',_ArrayMax( $Links1, 0, 1))
MsgBox(0,'Max Numeric value',_ArrayMax( $Links1, 1, 1))
MsgBox(0,'Max Numeric value',_ArrayMax( $Links1, 1, 0))
MsgBox(0,'Max Numeric value',_ArrayMax( $Links1, 0,0))

It doesn't give me the 3

What am i doing wrong?

UBound() doesn't work for you?

Dim $Links1[4]
$Links1[0] = 'hi'
$Links1[1] = 'hadf'
$Links1[2] = 'adsfdsfhi'
$Links1[3] = 'dfljaleuhi'
MsgBox(64, 'Info', 'The total elements are: ' & UBound($Links1) - 1)
