OK, I figure a while-loop should suffice outside the for-loop to
concatenate the strings. The only trouble is is that I'm having
difficulty concatenating the strings, if this is at all possible?
For example, given these results in an array:
n = nResults;
ax = newArray(n);
ay = newArray(n);
for (j=0; j<n; j++) {
ax[j] = getResult("ax", j);
ay[j] = getResult("ay", j);
}
I then want to do something like the following:
t = "";
s = "";
z = 0;
while (z<=n) {
s = ax[z] + "\t";
t += s;
z = z+1;
}
t will then contain my concatenated string that I can append to my
output results (below). When running this though I am told that a
"number or numeric function is expected". I thought that I declared them
with t = "", etc?!?
Any pointers greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Andy
