Description

Description:
Changes the element at the given (zero-based) index of the array.
If the index is out of bounds, the array will resize to incorporate the index as its last value, padding with nil as necessary.
Groups:
Arrays

Syntax

Syntax:
array set [index, value]
Parameters:
array: Array
[index, value]: Array
index: Number
value: Anything
Return Value:
Nothing

Examples

Example 1:
_arrayOne set [0, "Hello"];
Example 2:
Append "Bye" as last element to _arrayTwo:
_arrayTwo set [count _arrayTwo, "Bye"];
Example 3:
Replace the last element of _arrayThree with 23:
_arrayThree set [(count _arrayThree) - 1, 23];
Example 4:
Using set with an index that is out of bounds:
_array = ["A"]; _array set [2, "C"]; // _array is now ["A", nil, "C"] _array set [1, "B"]; // _array is now ["A", "B", "C"]
