Tcl arrays are associative. Tcl has pretty much 3 data structures:
- scalars
- lists
- arrays (which are associative)
The trick is that a list is really just a scalar with whitespace between
the elements, unless the element is enclosed by braces, so there's really

Woah, that last part isn't true at all, and is a common misconception
that leads people to think Tcl isn't up-to-snuff, which isn't true.

That means that list's lindex accessor is O(1) and appends are O(1)
except where we need to increase the C Tcl_Obj **objv array (and that
only needs to copy the pointers).
I'm happy to stand corrected regarding the implementation, but for someone
writing Tcl code, is there a meaningful
Lists are preserved in Tcl as arrays of Tcl_Obj's. If I do the
following:
proc makeList {size} {
set output
Is there any difference in initializing output to list at first, or is
there no difference. IOW, should I initialize 'output' to a list object,
or does

Ok, the way I get data from the DB now is much like this:
function db_select($table, $fields, $where) {

}
This function creates a select statement based on the criteria I pass
in and returns a single row which I can access like this in PHP:
?
$row = db_select('users',

I remember the sensory overload of picking up AOLserver / ACS from scratch
18 months ago. I've been developing software on and off for 38 years
For example, you often want to see things organized by
function, not alphabetically -- you don't yet know the name of
what you're looking for!

I think the only thing I'm still hung up on is arrays. In PHP it was
ultra-easy to handle database rows using associative arrays,, and
handling large numbers of rows in multi-dimensional arrays. I don't
really know how to emulate that in Tcl, without setting up a separate
API to handle it.
