Subject: Re: [Mikrotik] Script to monitor ethernet interface speed
Looks like arrays are available. Here is a function to put a value in
an array:
# Usage: [$arrayPush <$array name> <value> <key position to place value (0-n or
-1)>]
# Input an array name, value, and the key position to push the value to. To
push value to the end of the array, enter -1.
# If array doesn't already exist, you must declare the variable and set it to
"" before calling the function.
:global arrayPush do={
:if ($2="") do={ :error "You did not specify a value to add to the
array."; }
:if ($1!="" && $3="") do={ :error "You did not specify the key position to
place the value in the array."; }
:if (($3<(-1)) || (([:typeof $3]!="num") && ([:typeof $3]!="str")) ||
($3>([:len $1]-1))) do={ :error "Argument 2 invalid."; }
:local string;
:if ([:typeof $1]="array" && $3=(-1)) do={
:foreach item in=$1 do={ :set string ($string . "," . $item); }
:set string ($string . "," . $2);
:set string [:toarray $string];
:return $string;
}
:if ([:typeof $1]="array" && [:len $1]>="0") do={
:local counter "0";
:foreach item in=$1 do={
:if ($counter!=[:tonum $3]) do={
:set string ($string . "," . $item);
:set counter ($counter+1);
} else={
:set string ($string . "," . $2);
:set string ($string . "," . $item);
:set counter ($counter+1);
}
}
:set string [:toarray $string];
:return $string;
}
:if ($1="") do={
:set string $2;
:set string [:toarray $string];
:return $string;
}
}
Here is another one dealing with arrays:

Might not get you where you are wanting to get, but at least arrays are
available so you might get there.
