Hi all,

When working with arrays you can simple assign a value to each element with STORE or = :

DIMENSION aArray[366,3]
STORE 0 TO aArray

At regular times I wished that I could qiuckly store different values for each column or just store a repeating patern in an array. You can make a loop to assign a value to each element, but i've found an easier and far more faster solution:

DIMENSION aArray[366,3]
aARRAY[1,1] = 1
aARRAY[1,2] = 2
aARRAY[1,3] = 3

ACOPY(aArray, aArray, 1, (366 - 1) * 3, 4)

The trick thus is to copy the array into itself where the destination element is equal to the source shifted by the length of the repeating values.

BTW. For all performance freaks:

DIMENSION aArray[366,3]
aArray=[0]
ACOPY(aArray, aArray, 1, (366*3) -1, 2)

also seems to be significatly faster than:

DIMENSION aArray[366,3]
STORE 0 TO aArray
