it's so funny

if IsArray($results[0]) Then
    MsgBox(0,"","wtf?")
    MsgBox(0,"",$results[0][0])
EndIf

will show me "wtf?" and then crash ?!

The line beginning Return $results[...

is using $results as a 2-dimensional array, but you declared it to have 1 dimension. So there is an error.

The second block of code you gave you said doesn't work, but can you say what you want to happen, and what doesn't work.

Hi,

This is the perennial problem of people used to jscript type arrays instead of vbscript type arrays; it is expected that the 1D"Array of Arrays" will automatically be declared as a 2D array system.

There is a lot written here about workarounds, but best to earn how vbscript and AutoIt do 2D arrays from the helpfile.

Hi,

cf above;

; ArrayjscriptType.au3
#include<array.au3>
Local $a[25] = [18, "b", "c", "d", "f", "g", "h", "j", "k", "l", "m", "n", "p", "r", "s", "t", "v", "x", "z" ]
Local $b[25] = [6, "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "r" ]
Local $c[25] = [7, "h", "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "k" ]
Local $d[25] = [6, "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "r" ]
Local $results[4] = [$a, $b, $c, $d]; ie Array of 1D Arrays
_ArrayDisplay($d)
_ArrayDisplay($results[0])
; Method1
Local $arResults2D[UBound($results) ][25] = [ _
        [18, "b", "c", "d", "f", "g", "h", "j", "k", "l", "m", "n", "p", "r", "s", "t", "v", "x", "z" ], _
        [6, "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "r" ], _
        [7, "h", "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "k" ], _
        [6, "a", "e", "i", "o", "u", "r" ] _
        ] ; note there is a single line limit of 4096, I think, for Autoit script lines
_ArrayDisplay($arResults2D,"Method1 $arResults2D[3][6];="&$arResults2D[3][6])
; Method2
Local $ar2Results2D[UBound($results) ][25]
For $row = 0 To UBound($results) - 1
    For $col = 0 To 25 - 1
        Local $arTemp = $results[$row]; ie Array of 1D Arrays requires temp Array to return values in AutoIt, vbscript
        $ar2Results2D[$row][$col] = $arTemp[$col]
    Next
Next
_ArrayDisplay($ar2Results2D,"Method2")
ConsoleWrite("$ar2Results2D[1][Random(1, $ar2Results2D[1][0]-1)]="&$ar2Results2D[1][Random(1, $ar2Results2D[1][0]-1)]&@LF)

I think _ArraySearch" only works for strings and numbers, but not sure.

You may need to look at "Eval", "Assign", or hash funcs in forum search, too if you want to emulate jscript functionality and Array naming.

[The Helpfile suggests -not- using embedded arrays in AutoIt due to speed issues, so 2D may be better if you can get around it here..]

Hope that helps,

Best, Randall

Hi,

PS, check some of these links too ..
