RE: [amibroker] size of an array in AFL?

["Dave Merrill" <dmerrill@xxxxxxx>]

<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003>in most languages, it's possible to find out the size 
of an array directly, by examining some property of the array itself or applying 
some function to it, without having to know how it was created. some examples 
are:
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003> 
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003>    array.length
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003>    array.size
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003>    
SizeOfArray(array)
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003> 
<SPAN 
class=299235307-25102003>is that possible in AFL? if not, it can be worked 
around since we do in general know how every array was created, but it's less 
elegant and less self contained.

  not sure how to answer this because it depends on which array you are refering 
  too.Are you refering to a stock data array of some description? If so 
  you could use the Barcount constant which will return the number of bars in 
  the array. Remember it's zero based so the last bar is refered to as: Barcount

  Dave Merrill [mailto:dmerrill@xxxxxxx]sorry for the dumb question, 
  but what's the syntax for getting the size(number of elements) in an 
  array? I want to do something like this, onlythat 
  works:      for(i=1; i<=array.length; i++) 
  {thanks,dave
