I need to create 2 simple Variable arrays like:

"Names" and "Gender"

I am accustomed to using a variable array such as

Name (x)

Gender (x)

PLEASE Help!

Thanks,

Hi DR White,

1. welcome to the forum!

2. not sure what you mean?
Maybe this one:
...
put "Klaus" into Name[1]
put "male (mostly)" into Gender[1]
...
Now you have the name in the FIRST key of the array Name and my gender in the first key of the array Gender.
Is that what you mean?

Hi.

Hmmm.

Or maybe you mean this:

put "Klaus" into expert[firstName]
put "wavering" into expert{joking]
put "silly" into expert[dunbarPost]

So now you have a single array named "expert", with three keys "firstName", "joking" and "dunbarPost", and with the data associated with those keys.

A little practice and you should be fine.

Or better:
...
put "Klaus" into expert["firstName"]
put "wavering" into expert{"joking"]
put "silly" into expert["dunbarPost"]
...
