&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[Category:SCI Pages]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Category:Temp SCI Pages]]&lt;br /&gt;
According to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Lars Skovlund]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There is no way to do what you ask. That&amp;#039;s part of the reason why they had to introduce the Memory call in SCI01 (but that&amp;#039;s an ugly solution to the problem.&lt;br /&gt;
There is a hack that you can use, however. Declare a single local variable followed by the arrays you need. Then you can (at least from the point of view of the PMachine, not sure about Brian&amp;#039;s compiler) index into the large arrays by addressing the lone local variable and using a bit of arithmetic.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;CodeBlockHeader&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Code:&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&amp;quot;sci&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(local&lt;br /&gt;
  baseVar&lt;br /&gt;
  array1[10]&lt;br /&gt;
  array2[10]&lt;br /&gt;
)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(instance Blah of Obj&lt;br /&gt;
  (properties&lt;br /&gt;
    arrayPos 1&lt;br /&gt;
 )&lt;br /&gt;
)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(instance Blarg of Obj&lt;br /&gt;
  (properties&lt;br /&gt;
    arrayPos 11&lt;br /&gt;
  )&lt;br /&gt;
)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/syntaxhighlight&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To access the array, you use a reference like:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;CodeBlockHeader&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Code:&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&amp;quot;sci&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  baseVar[(Blah:arrayPos)]     // Gets the 1st value from array1&lt;br /&gt;
  baseVar[(Blarg:arrayPos)]    // Get the 1st value from array2&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  baseVar[+ (Blah:arrayPos) 1]     // Gets the 2nd value from array1&lt;br /&gt;
  baseVar[+ (Blarg:arrayPos) 1]    // Get the 2nd value from array2&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/syntaxhighlight&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
