array containing four elements, and then
removes its last element:
var myPets_array:Array = new Array("cat", "dog", "bird", "fish");

push (Array.push method)
public push(value:Object) : Number
Adds one or more elements to the end of an array and returns the new length of the array.
Availability:
ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 5
Parameters
value :Object
- One or more values to append to the array.
Returns
Number
- An integer representing the length of the new array.
Example
The following example creates the array
myPets_array
with two elements,
cat
and
dog
. The
second line adds two elements to the array.
Because the
push()
method returns the new length of the array, the
trace()
statement in the
last line sends the new length of
myPets_array
(
4
) to the Output panel.
var myPets_array:Array = new Array("cat", "dog");
var pushed:Number = myPets_array.push("bird", "fish");
trace(pushed); // Displays 4.
