Problem Statement

This task is about arrays. For hashes or associative arrays, please see Creating an Associative Array. For a definition and in-depth discussion of what an array is, see Array.

Show basic array syntax in your language. Basically, create an array, assign a value to it, and retrieve an element   (if available, show both fixed-length arrays and dynamic arrays, pushing a value into it). Please discuss at Village Pump:   Arrays.
Please merge code in from these obsolete tasks:

Let's start with the solution:

-- a is an array of INTs
a :ARRAY{INT};
-- create an array of five "void" elements
a := #ARRAY{INT}(5);
-- static creation of an array with three elements
b :ARRAY{FLT} := |1.2, 1.3, 1.4|;
-- accessing an array element
c ::= b[0]; -- syntactic sugar for b.aget(0)
-- set an array element
b[1] := c; -- syntactic sugar for b.aset(1, c)
-- append another array
b := b.append(|5.5|);
