Arrays
What if you want to declare numerous values to a single variable . This is when we use an array . To declare an array we use the same syntax as a normal variable declaration but add ( ) on the end .
Here is an example
dim grades(4)
How many elements do you think we have created here is it 4 , in fact we have created 5 because arrays are zero based . This is an example of a fixed size array.
We can assign data to the array like this
grades(0) = 50
grades(1) = 80
grades(2) = 94
grades(3) = 12
grades(4) = 25
You can retrieve the data like this
myGrade = grades(0)
which would store the value 50 in myGrade
You can have more than one dimension in an array , for example here is a 2 dimensional array
Dim tictactoe(2,2)
this would create an array with 3 columns and 3 rows.
The total amount of dimensions you can have is 60
