!omplete Array Object ,eference
$or a complete reference of all the properties and methods that can be used #ith the Array object"
go to our complete Array object reference.
The reference contains a brief description and eamples of use for each property and method-
.hat is an Array/
An array is a special variable" #hich can hold more than one value" at a time.
%f you have a list of items 'a list of car names" for eample(" storing the cars in single variables
could loo0 li0e this1
cars1="Saab";
cars2="Volvo";
cars3="BMW";
&o#ever" #hat if you #ant to loop through the cars and find a specific one/ And #hat if you had not
2 cars" but 233/
The best solution here is to use an array-
An array can hold all your variable values under a single name. And you can access the values by
referring to the array name.
Each element in the array has its o#n %4 so that it can be easily accessed.
!reate an Array
The follo#ing code creates an Array object called my!ars1
var myCars=new Array();
There are t#o #ays of adding values to an array 'you can add as many values as you need to define
as many variables you re5uire(.
61
var myCars=new Array();
myCars[0="Saab";
myCars[1="Volvo";
myCars[2="BMW";
You could also pass an integer argument to control the array7s si8e1
var myCars=new Array(3);
myCars[0="Saab";
myCars[1="Volvo";
myCars[2="BMW";
91
var myCars=new Array("Saab"!"Volvo"!"BMW");
Note: %f you specify numbers or true:false values inside the array then the type of variables #ill be
numeric or ;oolean instead of string.
Access an Array
You can refer to a particular element in an array by referring to the name of the array and the inde
number. The inde number starts at 3.
The follo#ing code line1
"oc#men$%wr&$e(myCars[0);
#ill result in the follo#ing output1
Saab
