| | Associative array - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | An associative array (also dictionary, finite map, map, lookup table, and in query-processing an index or index file) is an abstract data type composed of a collection of keys and a collection of values, where each key is associated with one value. | | | Associative arrays are known by many names in different programming languages. | | | From the perspective of a programmer using an associative array, it can be viewed as a generalization of an array: While a regular array maps integers to arbitrarily typed objects (integers, strings, pointers, and, in an OO sense, objects), an associative array maps arbitrarily typed objects to arbitrarily typed objects. |

| | Hexapedia - Array |
| | In computer programming, an array, also known as a vector or list, is one of the simplest data structures. | | | In the C programming language, one-dimensional character arrays are used to store null-terminated strings, so called because the end of the string is indicated with a special reserved character called a null character ('\0') (see also C string). | | | Arrays of arrays are also of value in programming languages that only supply one-dimensional arrays as primitives. |

| | For associative arrays, the key part of each pair is compared to the pattern, and the first matching key found is the result. | | | When an array parameter is refer enced as `$name' (with no subscript) it evaluates to `$name[*]', unless the KSH_ARRAYS option is set in which case it evaluates to `${name[0]}' (for an associative array, this means the value of the key `0', which may not exist even if there are values for other keys). | | | K On an associative array this is like `k' but returns all values where exp is matched by the keys. |

| | Perl Overview |
| | Associative arrays are arrays that are indexed by strings. | | | The value of an array in a scalar context is the length of the array. | | | The index string is known as the key and the datum associated with a key is called the value. |

| | Associative arrays are identical to any other type of array with one major difference -- their index values. | | | For example, in an associative array the index "foo" can be used to store the value "bar". | | | Creating and working with multidimensional arrays can be done a number of ways -- all of which we introduced in part 1 of this series. |

| | An associative array also uses index keys but these keys are not numeric as in the example above. | | | In the previous tutorial, you learned that an array is a variable that stores several values or elements of data organized by index keys. | | | You use the array square brackets to add a key-value pair to the array or to create an array. |
