This just creates an array of pointers to DB objects but the DB objects
themselves are not created. Thus if you look at it:
julia> data
100-element Array{DB,1}:
#undef
#undef
Note that Array(Complex128,100) doesn't contain undefs as its elements
are isbits types thus not accessed via pointer indirection. (but its
elements are random).
> data[10].Y = 2.0+3.0im # this results in an getindex error as there is no

So this tries to access an undef object, further it also tries
assigning a scalar to a vector. You can do for instance:
julia> data[10] = DB(y,w)
DB(Complex{Float64}[6.03421e-316+....
If you want to fill them all, then iteration is the way forward. Better
get used to iteration, it crops up a lot...
