Dear List,
I have a long macro that I tried to simplify using a function.
The main purpose of this function was to fill a series of arrays that I'd
like to save at the end of the macro.
However I saw that arrays are not filled within functions and I was
wondering if  this could be possible. I have very little knowledge of
programming in general ( as you could have already understood!)

Here a quick example that demonstrate what I would like to do

Array1=newArray();
Array2=newArray();

for (i=0;i<5;i++){
Array1=Array.concat(Array1,i);
}

function Array_fill(n){
for(i=0;i<n;i++){
Array2=Array.concat(Array2,i);
}
}
Array_fill(5);
print("Array1 length: "+Array1.length);
print("Array2 length: "+Array2.length);

Thank you very much

Federico
