array limits

[John Esak]

Well, I kind of did the usual try-it-and-see approach... why wait for Ken to
look it up?

I had no problem building the following array

   dim array[32767]

I got an error trying to build

   dim array[32768]

I had no problem building

   dim array[32767](32767)

so I tried

   dim arry[32767](32768)

which gave me an Out of Memory error...

I increased PFTOKSIZE to huge value... still got memory error. So, I would
say that 32767 is the valid high max for each of these two values.

As for how many arrays can be on a table. I don't know the answer, nor a way
to easily test it. Sorry.

John

By the way doing a table that has nothing on it but


   dim array[32767](9999)  or one that has   dim array[32767](32767)

does not change the size of the token table built.  It is 262269.
