There are no multi-dimensional arrays in flexscript per se; however the script shown below can be helpful when working with multi-dimensional data. It basically takes a one dimensional array and sets it up to be referenced as if it were a two dimensional array. You can extend this concept to further dimensions as well.
//The following two macros named ROW and COL can be defined within
// the code, or defined globally in Tools>Global Variables>Global Macros.
// If defined globally, they will show in a different color which is useful.
#
define ROW (cols+
1)*
#
define COL +
int cols =
5;
int rows =
20;
doublearray myarray =
makearray((cols+
1)*(rows+
1));
myarray[
ROW 1 COL 1] =
4.
3;
myarray[
ROW 1 COL 2] =
4.
4;
myarray[
ROW 1 COL 3] =
4.
5;
myarray[
ROW 1 COL 4] =
4.
6;
myarray[
ROW 1 COL 5] =
4.
7;
myarray[
ROW 2 COL 1] =
5.
3;
myarray[
ROW 2 COL 2] =
5.
4;
myarray[
ROW 2 COL 3] =
5.
5;
myarray[
ROW 2 COL 4] =
5.
6;
myarray[
ROW 2 COL 5] =
5.
7;
for(int
i =
1;
i <=
2;
i++
)
{
for(int j = 1; j <= 5; j++)
{pt("row "); pd(i); pt(" col "); pd(j);
pt(" "); pf(myarray[ ROW i COL j]); pr();
}
}
The printout is as follows:
row
1 col
1 4.
300000
row
1 col
2 4.
400000
row
1 col
3 4.
500000
row
1 col
4 4.
600000
row
1 col
5 4.
700000
row
2 col
1 5.
300000
row
2 col
2 5.
400000
row
2 col
3 5.
500000
row
2 col
4 5.
600000

5 5.
