Size...?

[zozoR]

since i learned to use arrays i havent understod what the Size is for is it importen? I've heard that u should have it to the number of arrays u want to use, and in some maps they use the same array 100 times with a size of 1

so tell (or else): what does the size do and is it importen?

if you are talking about setting the size for arrays, then no its not really important and doesn't really make much difference in the end.

The game will dynamically increase the size of your array as required, so you don't have to worry about it.

LOL

Back in the day (um, 6th grade) we had to malloc() more array variables, because they would ONLY use a set size Ah, the memories.

That's still the case with the "real" languages

Well its tight because perl and CGI do it automatically too

say you select an array of say 3. World editor will automatically creat 4 array variables so you can use them without announcing them. say your name of the cariable was bucket. You select size 3. Now world editor will create for "bucket variables...
bucket[0]
bucket[1]
bucket[2]
and bucket[3]
this way you can start out as 0 or 1. I see no point in using sizes. Because you can just declare it when you set the variable.
