Hi Russel, >From what I can tell there is no mention of using associative arrays >(aka dictionaries, maps, etc.) in the user documentation, e.g. http://c >hapel.cray.com/docs/1.13/modules/internal/ChapelArray.html it wades >into sets and set operations (I guess on the basis that the map X ?

The docs link you posted is not intended to be the comprehensive documentation of arrays and domains. The language specification is a good resource for documentation of language features, such as arrays and domains. I recommend checking out the associative domains [1] section for more formal documentation on associative domains and arrays. The primers are often good enough to learn the basics, however.

Unfortunate, but I'm not sure what we can do about it.
