Arrays and Loops

[DEVVED]

I was wondering if there was a way to do a loop using arrays so when your last array is used the loop stops?

[GaryFrost]

Dim $a_array[5] = ["My", "array", "test", "with", "loop"]

For $x = 0 To UBound($a_array) - 1
    MsgBox(0,"Array: " & $x, $a_array[$x], 3)
Next
oÝ÷ ÚÚºÚ"µÍ[H   ÌÍØWØ^HHÝ[ÔÜ]
    ][ÝÓ^H^HÝÚ]ÛÜ ][ÝË  ][ÝÈ  ][ÝÊBÜ   ÌÍÞHHÈPÝ[

    ][ÝÐ^N    ][ÝÈ  [È ÌÍÞ  ÌÍØWØ^VÉÌÍÞKÊB^

etc... and so on.... it's all in the help file

Besides the help file are there any good resources that explain in great detail how Arrays are sorted, searched, as I found a great example of an idea/code that I would or could not ever preceive - you know what I mean, a 101, 102,201,301 classes or tutors on arrays and loops ?

Not sure what your asking for so I just provide a link to a tutorial.

I am asking how you thought of the concept of doing what you did.

I know that most of the people that attemp to program on this and other forums are either programmers or wantabees or noobes. Most are the two latter. I want to understand what you did and want to be able to do it in my own code - I'm a wantabee/noobe. But how do I do something that I cannot think about unless I see other examples of code and read and read and read through it just to understand one part and then continue to break it down for hours - your code you posted, I have still to totally understand it after a couple of hours of breaking it down. By the way I did steal your program style (;NOTE: & ;TODO: and I really like the way you used a simple Local variable to debug - I learned an easier way.

I want to know if anyone knows a tutorial or website (maybe the 'white pages') that explains arrays and how to use them in great detail, with lots of examples (not really coding examples but the ideas so that I can really understand them). I have started on this forum and have read a lot about them, but would never have been able to write what you did. And the reason for my request - So I can understand your code without spending hours trying to understand it.

I am sorry about the long winded reply.

@nitekram,

The consept is based on experience and studying. I have lots of books regarding computers and programming. I don't bother so much about the new ones (to expencive). Get second hand books if you can. Atleast when it comes to programming and theory. Everything was discussed and thoughtof in the 60s. So any book written after 1975 does contain valuable information. Those written in the 90s are easier to read and understand as they tend to be less academic. Any book with algorithm in the title probably has some value to you untill you can look at the index and recognice 80% of the consepts listed. When that said. I'm still learning and probably will for the rest of my life. Partly because I forget. Partly because my brain ain't AI like, as some others have.

The link I provided in a previous post is a introduction to arrays in AutoIt.

Happy scripting..
