Extension talk:Arrays/archive

such a pragmatic extension thanks

Arraydefine
On your examples page you use something like

which would create an array 1,2,3. But it's not documented here yet. Is this an permanent feature allready? Are there more values for this parameter? --Danwe 22:13, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, the feature has not yet been released because of some concerns on the design of function interface (users may want to set multiple values on the last parameter, e.g. make it unique, make it sort). would it be natural to use '&' to separate the values? - Lidingpku 14:04, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't know, I personal wouldn't use & but there could be reasons to do so. I like the last parameter to sort or unique in the same step and I already use this feature. --Danwe 20:41, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Arrayreset
I think #arrayreset is not very hepful in it's actual function. In most cases I have a template where I create a temporary array and I want to destory it there. But when you use  there, it will destroy ALL arrays, also these which were not defined in that template which are still needed in some cases. So perhaps it would be better if you could use that function #arrayreset alternatively like that:  or even better:. Shure, you can also use but I think it would be more pretty if you could use the #arrayreset function because you can see on first fiew where an array is going to be defined and where it will be destroyed. --Danwe 22:22, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

ok, one option has been added to #arrayreset to support this idea. you can now use to unset a selection of arrays. - Lidingpku 14:28, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Arrayslice
I'm using arrayslice and am using 1 and 10 for the offset and length - then I am using arrayprint to post the 10 values in the new array. The extension is correctly posting 10 values; however, the array is starting with the second value of the array rather than the first. I have tried to post with an offset of zero and have even posted an arrayprint with an arrayslice with no length - the first value still doesn't show. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
 * Looks like they fixed that problem yesterday. Please youse the signature for the next time you add something to the talk page! --Danwe 20:39, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
