 ===== Arrays ===== ===== Arrays =====
 Arrays are allocated using the [[DIM|DIM]] command or re-sized using [[REDIM|REDIM]].  They may hold numeric or string data.  Access to specific elements in an array is accomplished by using square brackets along with the integer offset of the element, starting from zero.  Arrays may also be dimensioned and accessed using two dimensions.\\ Arrays are allocated using the [[DIM|DIM]] command or re-sized using [[REDIM|REDIM]].  They may hold numeric or string data.  Access to specific elements in an array is accomplished by using square brackets along with the integer offset of the element, starting from zero.  Arrays may also be dimensioned and accessed using two dimensions.\\

 +==== Passing Arrays of Data to Builtin Functions and Statements ====
 +
 +When passing an array of data, like to the [[sound|sound]] statement, you must include an empty set of brackets [] after the variable name.  This was added to reduce the confusion between a regular variable and a variable containing an array of values.
