Hi Christopher

Just following up on this one:

Would _in be a pointer to Input[i] or a structure in it's own right?

_in and Input[i] (which are the same thing) are JS objects. More specifically, they're structures (you're passing in a structure of structures).

Typically I use
                _in = meta_data [i][j] // A tidier way to get to it's items. So 
then:
        _in = new Object();
        _in.alpha = startValue;
        _in.delta = distance;

Then I expect to find the values I assigned in meta_data object.

Is there a sure way to know when I'm making a pointer variable and when I'm copying a value. Obviously structures can't be assigned with just a = my_struct so I'm going to get a pointer in those cases but what if I'm not sure what's in my_struct.Is there a way to test to see a variable is a pointer or not?

Bit confused about lazy coercion!

Thanks
Alastair
