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

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxx>]

Hello,
 
Each array length is given by BarCount built-in variable 
(all arrays have the same size)
(usually equal to number of data bars in current 
symbol)
 
Best regards,Tomasz Janeczkoamibroker.com

  <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.

  >I'm 
    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 - 1Regards,William

    [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,daveSend
