How can I change directly an element of an array?

[lololoer16_17]

I want to make a function to change an element of an array directly this could be very useful to long list, such as surfaces, instead of typing all the array, typing the element(byIndex).
I maded this code to help people to insert an element between 2 or more in an array (with help of kilinich's xfor code).

Code: Select all

scene.my.insertElement = (a, x, eL)=>{
    xFor = (n1, n2, code)=>{
        n2 > n1 ? {
            m := (n1 + n2) / 2;
            xFor(n1, m, code);
            xFor(m + 1, n2, code)
        } : {code(n1)}
    };
    n = (z)=>{
        string.length(z) - 1
    };
    Ge1 := [];
    Ge2 := [];
     xFor(0, eL, (i)=>{
        Ge1 = Ge1 ++ [a(i)]
    });
     xFor(eL + 1, n(a), (i)=>{
        Ge2 = Ge2 ++ [a(i)]
    });
    Ge1 ++ [x] ++ Ge2
}

I think that using this function as point reference, and changing something on it (wich I don't know how to), will work.
The function would be like: Array = scene.my.function(Array,index,element).

If this is used to insert an element into an existing array, then the entire array will become larger. Is that correct?
For example, if I have array: scene.my.array[3,8,2,4] and if I use your function to insert a 7 into element #1, then the result will be
scene.my.array[3,7,8,2,4]. Is that correct?

Another question: You state that this function is used to "change directly an array element". That is different from inserting a new element. So, which is correct, insert or change?

Xray, forget it , I did not explained very good, just you have to know that I'm asking for a fnction that changes
directly an elemwnt of an array.

This is what I use for writing to a single array element:

scene.my.xFor := (n1, n2, code) => {
n2 > n1 ? {
m := (n1 + n2) / 2;
scene.my.xFor(n1, m, code);
scene.my.xFor(m + 1, n2, code)
} : {code(n1)}
};

scene.my.WriteArray := (array, n, new) => { result := []; scene.my.xFor(0, string.length(array)-1, (i)=>{ i == n ? { result = result ++ [new]} : {result = result ++ [array(i)]} }) }

Enter the above code into the console.

Then to use the function, this is the script: array=scene.my.writearray(array,n,value)

This has worked very well for me, and I have used it in every scene that I made that has arrays. You are welcome to use it too!

Xray - Wow! Have you maded that function by yourself? if so, Good job and thankyou!

No I did not invent that code. It was invented by user KarateBrot, and he gave me permission to use it in my scenes. I made a few minor changes to it, but it basically works the same as his original script. It is my favorite script because it is so very useful!

xFor is mine but it's not necessary to use here)
