Structure

[Behzadgof]

Is there anything similar to structure or class or arraylist in EFS? I have created a comma separated set of values and I am passing it as a global variable. On the receiving end I separate each one and I put it into an array, however referring to each array element using element number is somewhat confusing, I am looking for an easier way to refer to each element of the array possibly using a name instead of a number, do you have any recommendations?

thanks

the only practical way i am aware of to keep names is to simply make a variable for each piece of data, i assume youre not using loop statements since you couldnt possibly hope to call different names through a loop without using index numbers, but that would defeat the purpose since what you are trying to do is not use index numbers.
so either make a variable for each peice of data, or make a legend so you can keep the index numbers straight.

unless of course you are trying to make 2D arrays. Array[3, 43] can get really confusing, but you could simply break it up into single dimensional arrays if you must, ie:

HighValues[100]
LowValues[100]
OpenValues[100]
CloseValues[100]

instead of a 2D array like this

BarValues[4, 100]



i hope that helped, without more information i dont know what else i could say

Re: Structure

Hi Behzad,

Check out this link, you can use strings to define array elements similar to the manner in which kalzenith described how to use the 2D arrays.
http://www.hunlock.com/blogs/Masteri...ascript_Arrays. In effect you are creating a named object reference an array.

I had this link in my fileshare in this folder JavaScript Links where there are other related links. hope this helps.
