<badge>WMPRO, WMMINI FW >= 1.898</badge> <badge>WMMEGA FW >= 2.0</badge>

Create an <html><b><span style="color:green">array<span style="color:black"></b></html> of a specific type and size

====Description====

<well size="sm"><html>
<span style="font-size:125%;color:green">array
<span style="color:black">indexed_array (
<span style="color:green">int
<span style="color:blue">$type<span style="color:black">,
<span style="color:green">int
<span style="color:blue">$size
<span style="color:black">)
</html></well>

Create an indexed <html><b><span style="color:green">array<span style="color:black"></b></html> with the specified type and number of elements. An indexed array is a more efficient way to store variables in memory if the size and data type is known beforehand. The [[array()]] function creates a hashed array, which consumes much more memory per element.

====Parameters====

<html><b><span style="color:blue">$type<span style="color:black"></b></html>:  1=byte, 2=short, 3=int, 4=float
  * Type 1: Array of bytes
  * Type 2: Array of short integers (16 bits)
  * Type 3: Array of 32 bit integers
  * Type 4: Array of floating point numbers

<html><b><span style="color:blue">$size<span style="color:black"></b>:  The number of elements in the <b><span style="color:green">array<span style="color:black"></b></html>

====Return Values====

Indexed <html><b><span style="color:green">array<span style="color:black"></b></html>

====Example====

<code php>
<? 
  $arr=indexed_array(1,100); // create an array of 100 bytes
?>
</code>

====Note====

There are no named keys in an indexed array, all elements are referenced by the index number. The first element is index=0, and the last element is index=$size-1.
