Hi list, some more arrays for fun and (potential?) profit.... //this goes well; int foo[8]; 3 => foo[0]; 5 => foo["test"]; //let's make sure <<< foo[0] >>>; <<< foo["test"] >>>; //that was fun! //lets do it again in 2D! //fine int bar[3][8]; //fine 3 => bar[0][0]; //not so fine 5 => bar[0]["test"]; //we never get here <<< foo[0][0] >>>; <<< foo[0]["test"] >>>; Why is this? Is this a bug? Missing feature? Complete misunderstanding of how to combine polydimentional arrays and sociative-ness? ChucK claims foo goes out of bounds but I suspect it's either a bug or a syntax error because frankly I can't see how I could prevent 5 => bar[0]["test"]; from going out of bounds. Yours, Kas.
Hi Kassen, Your understanding of of multi-dimensional arrays is correct. This bug seems to occur because ChucK uses a different instruction for accessing multidimensional arrays, which seems to disregard associative/string indices. This is something that can hopefully be cleaned up pretty quickly. One quick fix for this goes as follows: int bar[3][8]; 3 => bar[0][0]; 5 => (bar[0])["test"]; <<< bar[0][0] >>>; <<< (bar[0])["test"] >>>; But ideally one would not need to use parentheses to enforce correct array access behavior. Thanks for reporting this. spencer On Nov 21, 2006, at 12:00 PM, Kassen wrote:

Why is this? Is this a bug? Missing feature? Complete misunderstanding of how to combine polydimentional arrays and sociative-ness?
