Creating multiple Arrays with for buckle

[William Nicolas]

Hello everyone,

I am actually working on a macro for fluorescence intensity quantifier, and I would like my macro to create for each image a new Array with serial names. i.e I want to analyze two images, thus I want 2 arrays for saving the intensity levels named something like ArrayImage1, ArrayImage2. I was thinking of doing this with a for buckle but I don’t know how to increment the name of the Arrays.

Hope I am clear enough…. thanks in advance for the help :)

Regards

William

There isn’t a way to create multiple arrays named array1, array2, … arrayn, where n is a variable, but you can easily create a Results table with n columns. Here is an example:

  n = getTime()%10 + 1;
  run("Clear Results");
  for (i=1; i<=n; i++) {
     for (j=0; j<10; j++)
        setResult("Image"+i, j, random());
  }

Thanks a lot Wayne, I find your use of the getTime function interesting. I found another way around during the gap period between my question and your answer but I will keep in mind your code.

Thanks !

William
