Associative arrays in Neobook

[reinier maliepaard]

Hello.

Associative arrays, that use 'named keys' (also called 'named indexes'), can not be made with some Neobook function. However, they can be created with a small trick. I like this strategy in order to make code more readable (and sometimes shorter). Just for fun, I made a short text on this topic.

I hope you will enjoy it.

Best regards,

I hadn't thought about using arrays like this. Thank you for sharing this with us!
