Arrays


" + - "Arrays are special container objects. Arrays can hold many values under a single name. Each value in the array " + - "can be accessed using an index number. The following example shows how to declare an array:

" + - "thisIsAnArray = Array[1, 2, 3, 'bitburner!', false];

" + - "Note that the values in an array can be different types. To access this array we just declared, we can use the index " + - "operator on the array's name:

" + - "print(thisIsAnArray[0]);
" + - "thisIsAnArray[1] = 5;
" + - "thisIsAnArray[3] = 'string concatenation ' + 123;

" + - "Note that arrays are indexed starting at index 0. Using an index that is too large or less than 0 will result in an " + - "out of bounds runtime error.

" + - "If an element in an array is assigned to a value that includes a variable, then it holds a reference to that variable. " + - "What this means is that if the variable changes, the array element will also change accordingly. For example:

" + - "x = 10;
testArr = Array[x];
print(testArr[0]);
x = 20;
print(testArr[0]);

" + - "This code will print:

10
20

" + - "Array functions
" + - "Arrays have built-in functions/properties that can be used to more easily access and manipulate the containers.

"+ - "length/length()
Returns the number of elements in the array.
" + - "The example below will print out 5:

" + - "arr = Array[1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
print(arr.length);

" + - "clear/clear()
Removes all elements from the array.
" + - "The example below creates an array with three strings and then uses clear to remove all of those strings. The result is that 'arr' will be " + - "an empty array.

" + - "arr = Array['str1', 'str2', 'str3'];
arr.clear();

" + - "push(e)
Adds the element e to the end of the array.
" + - "The example below will create an array holding one element: the number 1. It will then push the number 2 onto the array. The result " + - "is that 'arr' will be an array of size 2 with arr[0] == 1 and arr[1] == 2

" + - "arr = Array[1];
arr.push(2);

" + - "insert(e)
Inserts an element e into an array at a specified index. Every element in the array that is at or after " + - "the specified index is shifted down. The array must be indexed with the [] operator when using this function.
" + - "The following example will insert the number 2 into index 1 of the array. The result afterwards is that 'arr' will hold the values [1, 2, 3, 4].

" + - "arr = Array[1, 3, 4];
arr[1].insert(2);

" + - "remove()
Removes an element from a specified index. Every element in the array that is after the specified index " + - "will be shifted up. The array must be indexed with the [] operator when using this function.
" + - "The following example will remove the first element of the array. The result afterwards is that 'arr' will hold the values [2, 3].

" + - "arr = Array[1, 2, 3];
arr[0].remove();

" + + "Netscript arrays have the same properties and functions as javascript arrays. For information see javascripts array documentation.

Script Arguments

While loops


" + "A while loop is a control flow statement that repeatedly executes code as long as a condition is met.

" + "while ([cond]) {
    [code]
}


" + "As long as [cond] remains true, the code block [code] will continuously execute. Example:

" + - "i = 0;
while (i < 10) {
    hack('foodnstuff');
    i = i + 1;
};


" + + "i = 0;
while (i < 10) {

" + - "while(true) {
     hack('foodnstuff');
};


" + + "while(true) {
     hack('foodnstuff');
}


" + "This while loop above is an infinite loop (continuously runs until the script is manually stopped) that repeatedly runs the 'hack('foodnstuff')' command. " + "Note that a semicolon is needed at closing bracket of the while loop, UNLESS it is at the end of the code

" + "

For loops


" + "A for loop is another control flow statement that allows code to be repeated by iterations. The structure is:

" + - "for ([init]; [cond]; [post]) {
    code
};


" + + "for ([init]; [cond]; [post]) {
    code
}


" + "The [init] expression evaluates before the for loop begins. The for loop will continue to execute " + "as long as [cond] is met. The [post] expression will evaluate at the end of every iteration " + "of the for loop.
