Returns a string array with the specified dimensions.

Usage

result = SINDGEN(dim1, ... , dimn)

Input Parameters

None.

Discussion

Each element of the array is set to the string representation of the value of its one-dimensional subscript, using the default formatting rules of PV‑WAVE LONGs. These rules are described in the PV‑WAVE Programmer’s Guide.

Example

This example creates a 4-by-2 string array.

a = SINDGEN(4, 2)

INFO, a

; PV-WAVE prints: A     STRING      = Array(4, 2)

PRINT, a

; PV-WAVE prints the following: 

; 0   1   2   3

; 4   5   6   7
