Array problem again 1

[87106]

I have a simple code like this. I'm new to tcl/tk world.

This works:
change v array_1[0] 10

But this doesn’t work:
set x 1
change v array_1[$x] 10

Note : array_10[20] is an array C langauge array.

Basically I want to change the value of an array. Why it works when i pass absolute value as an index & not when I pass index indirectly.

Please help!

I think you must be mixing languages here.
change is not a Tcl statement that I recognize. Furthermore, arrays in Tcl are indexed with regular parentheses, (), not square brackets, [].

Now, in Tcl you change an element of an array simply by seting it: set array_1($x) 10, for instance.

Thanks Bob. Indeed I was mixing up the langauges. I'm using Codewarrior IDE tcl shell. So "change value" was IDE provided command. Thanks for directing me to use "set" instead.
