ActionScript 2.0 :: Associative Arrays - Store Variables And Change Values
Dec 18, 2007
I'm trying to use associative arrays to store my variables but am looking for a solution to change the value of array1[i] to array2[i]. Since it's an associative array, the only way I know how to loop through these kinds of arrays is by the following:
Code:
for(var i in array1) {
trace(array1[i];
}
What I would do when using indexed arrays to change the value of array1[i] to array2[i] would be something like this:
Code:
for(i=0; i<array1.length; i++) {
array1[i] = array2[i];
}
However, I can't see any way you can do this with associative arrays because they do not have a numbered index such that in a loop you could
say array1[i] = array2[i] .
So I'm looking for a way to do this with associative arrays.

I was trying something out, and came across a little error. I wrote the following code to create an array and, using each value of that array, create an associative array for the values of xVelocity and yVelocity.[code]But I get an error from that as well. I think I understand basically why this doesn't work, but I'm wondering if, given the spirit of what I'm trying to do, you can think of a working alternative.

I've had a problem for awhile that was really odd. After some intense debugging, I realized the problem lied in setting an array equal to another array.[code] When setting one array equal to another, the values aren't copied over, but a reference to that memory is stored. So no matter which variable you change, they are both references to the same memory and thus both will reflect the changes.With other data types, this doesn't happen.I could fix it by looping through t1 and using push() to add each index from t1 into t2, but that seems a little messy.

I have an associative array.
Actionscript Code:
myArray = {car:"Ford",type:"Mustang"},{car:"Chevy",type:"Camaro"});
Now if I wanted to add data to the indexes how would I do it?
For instance I now want to add years 1985,and 2000 to the index 0 and 1.

I'm trying to send an object to javascript that can have an arbitrary number of elements included, including associative arrays. If I create the following object:[code]The numeric indexes of the array will trace out, while the string based indexes will not. Does anyone have any idea why this might not be working? (Running CS4, I can't find the option to change my signature)

First I need to come up with a storage mechanism that looks something like this
x coord: 124 y coord 26 color: orange
x coord: 13 y coord 54 color: orange
x coord: 14 y coord 14 color: orange
x coord: 124 y coord 46 color: orange
x coord: 154 y coord 26 color: black
x coord: 12 y coord 21 color: orange
Secondly I need to know how to run a test to see if there is already an entry in that list that has the mouses current coordinates, and if it doesn't, it places a new entry with the mouses coordinates with the current color variable which will be a variable that flcikers back and forth between black and orange based on a timer that runs separately. I know that forEach will be involved and I know that what I am working with will be called an associative array.

My intention is to have an array with several variables, each one with a different name, all of them of the type 'Number'. This I can do.What I can't do is to access the variables using the array's index.
Paste this on your frame 1:
Code:
trace("======at frame 1======");
//objects//
var objects:Array = new Array();
[code]....
As you can see, the code is changing the value of the array element and not the value of the variable inside the array element.

I have had a long post somewhere on here and just wanted to start a specific post on just associative arrays. First of all I have an array which I don't know if it's an array or an associative array or an object or both. ie: I read that the below would be an object but works as an array too.
The problem is when I use this array as references to instantiate classes in a runtime shared library.I seem to be able to create the appropriate arrays and objects BUT I definately can't use/acess them properly. I massive confusion between movieclips and objects. I get a forced conversion error when I try to add objects to a movieclip . simply because I want to add the mc elements to the stage.

I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array();
var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array();
slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.

correct syntax for pushing variables to arrays within arrays? I have searched many threads but found nothing that exactly answers my query.I have a class (Brigade) which amongst other variables contains an array (BrigadeUnits) This is the third element.. My Brigades are stored in an array called AllBrigades. I now need to fill the BrigadeUnits array with objects of my Units class.The hierarchy I want to create is as follows:
AllBrigades (array of Brigades)
Brigade (object)
BrigadeUnits (array within Brigade object)
Unit (Object to be stored in BrigadeUnits array)
I have tried various approaches including the following, assuming that I am addressing the first Brigade in the array:
AllBrigades [0] [2].push (MyUnit);
But when I trace this I just get undefined.

I have a series of variables created that store the distances between two points. I need to find the shortest distance between the two points so I'm storing the results in an array, then sorting the array to show me the smallest number which is the shortest distance. But the problem I have is that I don't need the number I need the variable in the calculation that relates to that number. Make any sense? So if the equation (herexPos - column3Begin) produces the smallest number I need to be able to reference column3Begin after I've sorted the array.

I have plans to make an RPG that is similar to those on the SNES as far as movement goes- you walk one tile in a direction at a time and if the tile that you are trying to move to has been marked as one that can't be walked on, it stops the character from going there. That means that conventional collision wouldn't quite cut it.
So I decided that I would make it to where every tile will have a specific value (one to say that there is no collision, another to say there is, etc.), and every object will have an X and Y value that changes in relation to the character (because there is scrolling in this project).
The thing is, there will be a lot of objects, and there will be a lot of tiles; this will quickly become an unimaginably huge project if I just go ahead and throw objects in.
So, what would be the most efficient way of storing these values? I was thinking of storing it in an XML file or a class, but I haven't really done it before, so I want to get a second opinion before I try and do so.

I want to draw a line graph between two variable(X) and (Y) but i want to read that variable values from a external file.. I try use loadVars() class, but in that i have to assign a varable name to each and every value.. but i want to create a generalised class that will store any number of data into an array..

I am creating a card game application in that dynamic movieclips created on stage and inside those movieclips different cards can drop, which have some values.
If one movieclip contains one card and another movieclip contained two cards and all the other movieclips 3rd,4th,5th.. etc contains some cards then, if i want to go back and want to drop another card at the top of the old one, than how i can do this, because when i go back and drop a new card inside movieclip than it replaces the old one. i don't want to create a new array for each movieclip.

In my example I have established root items (item1,item2,item3 and item4) and sub-items underneath them, and I can easily access the values at the sub-level, but I can't figure out how to output the values on the root level, if I use treemenu[0] it doesn't output "item 1" but the values on the sublevel, how can I point to the actual value on the root level? so it would output for example "item 1"?
Code:
var treemenu:Array = new Array(new Array());
treemenu.push("Item 1");

I have a little problem and I guess it won't be difficult to solve, but I am still learning to create codes and I get stuck every once in a while (more every than once haha). What I want is to create to different arrays, one for all the buttons I have, and the other for all the instances of the frames that will take me when I hit each button. So for example if I hit mybutton3, it should take me to frame3.

Is there a simple way to ask "Does this array contain this value?" For example I have an array1 [0,2,4,6,8,10] and another array2 [1,3,5,7,9]. I want to say something like:

In this case of course it would find the value "3" in array2 and then do the appropriate action specified there.

So I'm coding a maze in Flash using ActionScript 2.0. I'm using a 2D array and with that I will give each point a value, either 1 or 2. I then plan to use modulo and an if else statement to pull a brick movie clip from my library. Here's what I've coded so far with the 2D array. This is my first time using this array and I'm unsure wwether I have coded this correctly. how do I use this array now to assign the values of 0 and 1?
