TSE: Datastructure: Array: Create: How to implement an array in TSE?

---

Method: Global variable via concatenating the array index number

You simulate an array in TSE by building a global variable string via
concatenation.

---

1. First its variable name made up of one or more alphanumeric 
characters.

2. Followed by a number (e.g. an integer converted to a string).


e.g.

 "array" + "1", or thus "array1",

 "array" + "2", or thus "array2",

  ..., "array" + "65535", or

  thus "array65535" and set and get its values).

---

You set its value by using a global SetGlobalStr

e.g.

 I = 25

 SetGlobalStr( "array" + Str( I ), "test" )

 // this sets array25 to "test"

---

You get its value by using a global GetGlobalStr

e.g.

 Message( GetGlobalStr( "array" + Str( I ) ) )

 // this shows the value of array25, which is currently "test"

---
---

--- cut here: begin --------------------------------------------------

 PROC Main()

  INTEGER I = 25

  // this sets array25 to "test"

  SetGlobalStr( "array" + Str( I ), "test" )

  // this gets the value of array25, which is currently "test"

  Message( GetGlobalStr( "array" + Str( I ) ) )

 END

--- cut here: end ----------------------------------------------------
