Thus, you can interpret the lower left preceding example as a command to
generate a 1D array of all elements at column 0 and row 3. You can interpret
the upper right example as a command to generate a 2D array of page 1.
The new, 0
th
element is the one closest to the original, as shown in the
preceding illustration.
Activity 14-3. Use the Build Array Function
Your objective is to use the Build Array function to combine elements and
arrays into one bigger array.
Front Panel
1.
Create a new front panel, as shown in the following illustration.
2.
Place a digital control from the Controls»Numeric palette and label it
scalar 1
. Change its representation to
I32
.
3.
Copy and paste it to create two other digital controls and label them
scalar 2
and
scalar 3
.
4.
Create an array of digital controls and label it
array 1
. Copy and
paste it and label it
array 2
.
5.
Expand the arrays and enter the values 1 through 9 in
array 1
,
scalar 1
,
scalar 2
,
array 2
, and
scalar 3
, as shown in the
illustration above.
6.
Copy the array and paste it and change it to an indicator. Label it
1D array
. Expand it to show nine values.
