Dynamic Variable Names

[Guest]

Okay, I just need to figure out how to make dynamic variable names. In this case, I have a loop, and inside the loop I need to create a new array for every iteration of the loop. Something like

<cfloop from="0" to="10" index="i">
<cfset LoopArray#i# = Some Value>
</cfloop>

But that doesn't work. How can you make dynamic variable named? I think it's probably something to do with evaluate or DE, but I don't know how to use them, and the livedocs make no sense to me. Thanks!

Maybe you are just forgetting your cfoutput tag.

Thank you both for your replied, I did manage to find a solution (the same one posted by JR "Bob" Dobbs). Pretty much just looks like...

From your values, you don't want a two-dimensional array (which although
you're actually building LinkResults as a struct, with the sequential
numeric keys, it's basically an array), you want an array of structs, eg:

LinkResults .player1.moveId
LinkResults.player1.damage


What is "i" actually counting through? IE: from 1-3 things... which are...
what?
