put objects 2 through 7 into steve
put the third through eighth objects into steve
put the objects into steve
The objects
data type represents a list
that consists entirely of object
s.
In order to use lists properly, you must declare your variables to be a kind of list. If a list is put into a variable that is undeclared, or declared to be a type other than a kind of list, the list will be converted to a single string. For example:
put (1,2,3,4) into steve put the number of elements in steve
will print 1
because steve
has only one element: the string "1,2,3,4"
. However, this example:
local steve as numbers put (1,2,3,4) into steve put the number of elements in steve
will print 4
because steve
has four elements: the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4.
