Xaxis:array[1..10] of integer;
begin
Xaxis[1] :=10;
Xaxis[2] :=20;
Xaxis[3] :=30;
Xaxis[4] :=40;
Xaxis[5] :=50;
Xaxis[6] :=60;
Xaxis[7] :=70;
Xaxis[8] :=80;
Xaxis[9] :=90;
Xaxis[10] :=100;
is there a simpler and quicker way of declaring values for an array that this in pascal ?
Use a for loop:
for num := 1 to High(Xaxis) do
begin
Xaxis[num] := num * 10
end;
But first be sure to declare 'num' as an Integer.
Use a loop. I forget pascal's syntax but something like Xaxis[index] := index * 10; inside a loop would work.
You could also pre-initialise the array by writing
const
Xaxis: array[1..10] of integer = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100);
This approach is better when there's no simple arithmetical function to initialise the array. Had you written xaxis[1]:= 5, xaxis[2]:= 14, xaxis[3]:= 29, etc, then loops would not have been suitable.
