Hi all,
I try to build a multi-level data structure in Jmol. The first level is
an associative array (hash) and the second level is an array.
Example:
x = {};
x.a = ["test1"];
---- output of 'print x' --------
{
a :
[
test1
]
}
----------------------------------
Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to extend the second-level
array. I tried for example the following without success in version
14.3.12_2015.03.01:
$ x.a.push("test2")
script ERROR: invalid argument
----
x . a . push ( "test2" >> ) <<
$ x["a"].push("test2")
script ERROR: invalid argument
----
x [ "a" ] . push ( "test2" >> ) <<
$ (x["a"]).push("test2")
script ERROR: invalid argument
----
( x [ "a" ] >> ) << . push ( "test2" )
$ (x["a"])[x["a"].size + 1] = "test2"
script ERROR: invalid argument
----
( x [ "a" ] >> ) << [ x [ "a" ] . size + 1 ] = "test2"
$ x{"a"}.push("test2")
script compiler ERROR: command expected
----
>>>> x <<<<
Do you know any way to do this?
The hash key "a" would actually be contained in a variable, so the '.'
and ".." notation would not really be suitable for my purpose, even if
they would have worked. Replacing "a" by a variable name in the bracket
or braces notation didn't make any difference.
(By the way, the braces notation mentioned in the documentation wasn't
even accepted in a single level hash.)
Regards,
Rolf
