ActionScript doesn't have multi-dimentional arrays, but you can get
the equivelent by having arrays where each element is and array to
arbitrary depth. Also for associative arrays you should use generic
objects. So you can do the following:
var my3DArray:Object = {}; //this creates a new empty dynamic object
my3DArray["1992"] = new Object(); //equivelent to {} take your pick
my3DArray["1992"]["Feburary"] = []; or new Array()creates an new array
my3dArray["1992"]["Feburary"][0] = someValue;
etc.
if you don't know if a key exists yet you can do
if (! (month in my3DArray[year]))
{ my3DArray[year][month] = {}; //create it if it doesnt exist
}
