| | I have a problem. I searched all over the net without result:( |
| '''Array'''s are a set of [[variable]]s of the same type with a built in capacity
| | When u open hammer u got 4 screens. 1 in 3D and 3 in 2D. First it was normal but now it looks like this.[[http://users.telenet.be/downloadarea/hammer.jpg]] plz help |
| | | send reply here or to vancaeneghempieter@hotmail.com |
| An example of an array is below:
| | thx |
| | |
| int lotsOfInts[100];
| |
| | |
| This declares an [[integer]] '''array''', with at maximum 100 members.
| |
| This is because when a compiler sees the ''100'' within the braces it knows to allocate enough memory to the '''array''' to hold 100 [[integer]]s.
| |
| | |
| When accessing a member of an '''array''' it is important to remember that they are numbered starting at zero.
| |
| Therefore
| |
| | |
| lotsOfInts[3];
| |
| | |
| actually refers to the 4th [[integer]] member of the '''array'''.
| |
| Strings can be created by making a [[char]]acter '''array''', as seen below.
| |
| | |
| char thisIsAString[5];
| |
| thisIsAString[0]='H';
| |
| thisIsAString[1]='e';
| |
| thisIsAString[2]='l';
| |
| thisIsAString[3]='l';
| |
| thisIsAString[4]='o';
| |
| | |
| Or this can be performed in one action as follows:
| |
| | |
| char thisIsAString[5] = {'H','e','l','l','o'};
| |
| | |
| The same style of setting up an array applies to any type of variable.
| |
| However strings are more commonly stored in a [[char]]*, a character [[pointer]].
| |
| [[pointer]]s can be used fairly similarly to '''arrays'''
| |
| | |
| '''Array''' members can also be accessed via [[pointer]]s.
| |
| | |
| Custom classes can be used in '''arrays'''.
| |
|
| |
| [[Vector]]s are an alternative to '''arrays''' that allow more mathematical operations suited to manipulating various quantities related to geometry and physics, such as force [[vector]]s and normal [[vector]]s.
