-===== Lists ===== +===== Lists of Values (Arrays) ===== 
-A list is either a one or two dimensional set of values enclosed in braces { }.+A list is either a one dimensional set of values separated by commas and enclosed in braces { }, or a list of lists containing two dimensions of data.  You may use lists in many statements that are expecting arrays and can be used to create arrays without the dim statement.
  
-You may use lists in many statements to define a collection of points or sounds.  Lists are also used to quickly assign a variable to an array of values.+The [[explode|Explode]] and [[explodex|Explodex]] functions also return a list that may be used wherever lists are allowed.
  
-n anonymous array is a set of numeric values or a set of string values, separated by commas, and enclosed in braces {}.  Anonymous array can be used to rapidly assign a group of values to an array.  If the Anonymous array is longer than the dimensioned array then the array will be automatically re-dimensioned ([[redim|Redim]]) to the correct length.\\ 
-\\ 
-Anonymous Arrays can also be used in the [[poly|Poly]], [[sound|Sound]], and [[stamp|Stamp]] statements in place of an array variable.
