JoGa Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hi, based on a space separated list with an unknown number of array names, I want to create a bunch of arrays. like this: Global $ArrayList="array1 array2 array3 ..." to be transformed into $Global $array1[2] $Global $array2[2] $Global $array3[2] $Global $... I know the function 'Assign' which is used to create variables by name. Is there a methode to create arrays by name? Thanks for hints Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsaltyDS Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I was just thinking that. If you have an array then you are saving space Saving space over what? I wasn't asking why would you want arrays, only why would want string variable names for arrays (Assign/Eval with arrays)? Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

Paulie Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Saving space over what? I wasn't asking why would you want arrays, only why would want string variable names for arrays (Assign/Eval with arrays)? Logic would dictate you create another dimension. no?

James Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Saving space over what? I wasn't asking why would you want arrays, only why would want string variable names for arrays (Assign/Eval with arrays)? Well why create a new set of arrays of exisiting values?

PsaltyDS Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Well why create a new set of arrays of exisiting values?I have no idea, we'll have to wait for the OP to explain the desired functionality here.

pdaughe Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) Hi, based on a space separated list with an unknown number of array names, I want to create a bunch of arrays. like this: Global $ArrayList="array1 array2 array3 ..." to be transformed into $Global $array1[2] $Global $array2[2] $Global $array3[2] $Global $... I know the function 'Assign' which is used to create variables by name. Is there a methode to create arrays by name? Thanks for hints Jo I appreciate that there are some algorithms where such functionality is advantageous. You asked for hints: 1) I posted on this topic before....2) a one-dimensional array is also referred to as a "List". Think about how you can create a "list" in AutoIT and keep track of it....

JoGa Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 Tnx pdaughe, your hint answers my question: no Assign/Eval with arrays :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
