[amibroker] static variables/arrays...ATC?

["Paul A." <amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is there some way to create an array that lasts through all of the 
iterations of an Explore?

I assume that the way to do this is to create a new Ticker, and refer to 
it's fields with Foreign throughout all the iterations.

If so, would someone please point me to a discussion or a few lines of 
code, that explain how to create and initialize a new Ticker and to 
manipulate it's values with each new iteration of Explore, and finally to 
save the Ticker and it's new values subsequent to the Explore?

I realize that AddToComposite will do some of the above, but ATC has it's 
mind set on "adding" to the static arrays it's created.  I want to be able 
to use _all_ operators and functions, in order to assign values to ATC's 
new composite ticker.  And, prior to the first iteration of Explore, I want 
to initialize the arrays to any values I feel like, not just zero.

My best guess is to open a new composite ticker with ATC, and then ignore 
ATC by using it to add "0" to one of it's fields during every iteration, 
while having other code on hand that operates on the new ticker's data 
using Foreign().  But even if that works, how would I initialize an ATC new 
ticker's values to something other than zero?

Apart from ATC, is there some way to tell AFL to execute a block of code 
prior to the first Explore iteration, or subsequent to the last Explore 
iteration?

Thanks for any idea or comments about static arrays/tickers/variables that 
will stay alive through all the iterations of an Explore.
