Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I'm a bit stuck trying to work out how to use and access an array.
I have FOUR sets of FIVE integers I want to keep track of. An array would be perfect for that. Reading the manual(pages 56, 57), defining it would seem to be a case of: DIM Q(5,4)
This should give me an array of four sets of five integers.
Writing and reading is now where I am lost.
With a simple one-dimensional array such as DIM Q(5), reading and writing to the elements is easy: X=Q(3) as a reading example, or Q(3)=X as a writing example.
However, how do you do the syntax for a bigger one?
IE: How do I go about writing to the 5th element on the 4th set of elements for example?
EDIT: Nevermind....
Playing about on the console has revealed how to do it! Another fantastic use for the console - just type in commands and see what happens. Edited 2020-02-10 14:40 by GrogsterSmoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops!
