RE: Redefining a DS

I have an array of 10 elements. I want to move #9 to #10, #8 to #9,
etc. I
can write code that does that. In talking over this with a friend
today he
suggested moving the array to a data structure, redefining it, and
moving
all but 1 element back to the array. "Pretty smart", I said. Now I
wish
I'd said "hey, can you send me an example of how you do that?"

Sorry. It's getting late here.

D array1DS DS
D myNumbers 9P 2 Dim(10)
D elem1Thru9 45 Overlay(array1DS: 1)
D elem2Thru10 45 Overlay(array1DS: 6)

/Free

// Move 9 to 10, 8 to 9, 7 to 8, et cetera
EvalR elem2Thru10 = elem1Thru9 ;
