David,<div><br></div><div>I think the problem may be that you are returning an array that is local to your function and it is getting deallocated when the function returns.</div><div><br></div><div>If you used the same syntax to instead return an object&#39;s member variable which is an array, I think it would work as expected.</div>

<div><br></div><div>Hope that helps.</div><div>----------<div>Colin<br></div><br>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hi Chuckists,<div><br></div><div>A question about arrays in Chuck: the manual briefly mentions &quot;functions that have arrays as arguments or return type&quot; but I can&#39;t seem to find an actual example of a function with an array as a return type.  Does anyone know if this works, or there is a way to make it work?</div>

<div><br></div><div>If I call the function below, for instance, I get a &quot;NullPointerException: (array access)&quot; when I do anything with the result:</div><div><br></div><div>fun float[] t(float x,float nn[]) {<br>
