Re: Multi Dimensional Array

[Don <dr2@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not easily....

IBM would like you to think it can be done with a either the multiple
occurs or creating a 1D array of x*y*z elements then having to do the
calcs every bloody time you need to create a element address vs. just
saying:   MOVE  A(x,y,z)  YRMTHSALES  10.3

It can.  But then I can also do my payroll on a abacus...!

I'm told that alot of the multi-d code is already in the compiler and that
it is taking about 8-man-years to test the thing....  Frankly, I wish
they'd've just given it to us in stages, like array inits, and simple cell
moves then the full dynamic goodies later...
