Question by cerdajake2008 · Nov 14, 2017 at 06:24 AM · listarraysloops

Add existing variables to an array?

I have a few float variables and an array

public float zero = 10.5;

public float one = 25;

public float two = 50;

public float three = 75;

public float four = 12.5;

public float five = -65;

float[] numbers;

can I make these variables go into the (or an) array so that they are indexed and I can use them from other scripts by writing something like:

float otherZero;

otherZero = FirstScript.numbers[0] //meaning it's value will be 10.5

i'm am not sure if this is possible or how to do it. i've been watching a lot of tutorials on loops/lists/arrays and classes but it's just not coming to me

This is how I define an array with initial values:

 public float[] numbers = {10.5f, 25, 50, 75, 12.5f, -65};

well that's actually what I have after seeing it in the tutorial series but I wanted to make it better which would be having the names "zero - length" in inspector so I don't have to remember what number 12 did exactly when assigning the value to a new object when I put the script on if in the inspector it said ''number of triangles" ins$$anonymous$$d of ''element 12". I also looked up changing the ''element #" but it looked complicated so I was just wondering if there was a way to feed an array variables even though I thought there wouldn't be (i'm new). never hurt to ask! thanks though ;) if I really want it i'll look more into the other way
