$array [100] [20] [3]

[dazza]

This code returns an error:

Dim $array[100][20][30]
$array[1][1][1] = "cake"

==> Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.:

Can I not use 3d arrays?

[cageman]

that code doesn't give any error. you can use up 64 dimensions ( got that directly from the helpfile )

i tested the code myself and works fine for me.

as far as i know autoit doesnt support 3D Arrays

Sure it does, it actually supports up to 64 dimensions.

#include <Array.au3>

Dim $array[100][20][30]
$array[1][1][1] = "cake"
Msgbox(0,'Arraytest','Array contains:'&$array[1][1][1])

It works, try that code

#include <Array.au3>

Dim $array[100][20][30]
$array[1][1][1] = "cake"
Msgbox(0,'Arraytest','Array contains:'&$array[1][1][1])

It works, try that code

You do not need to include array.au3 for that example, only needed if you want to use special array functions like _ArraySort or _ArrayDisplay etc.

You don't need array.au3, especially since it has no functions for arrays over 2 dimensions.

Yeah you're right. ^^

Aha!

You cannot use the upper limit.

So $array[100][1][1] returns an error whilst $array[99][1][1] doesn't

So I have to dim the array as:

Dim $array[101][21]31]

Thanks for the feedback guys

But you can use the upper limit, you have to remember that arrays start at 0, so if you create the array as Dim $array[100] the highest will be 99.

[SpookMeister]

For Example:

Dim $array[3]

creates these three array elements:

$array[0]
$array[1]
$array[2]

Trying to access $array[3] will give you an error because it does not exist

[dazza]

Sorted!

Many thanks.
