I found an oddity with arrayEncode and arrayDecode, When I saved an array to a file, first using arrayEncode(myArray), wrote it out as
put arrayEncode(myArray) into theEncodedArray put theEncodedArray into URL(“binfile:”&myfile) and then read it back in using put URL(“binfile:”&myFile) into theEncodedArray put arrayDecode(theEncodedArray) into myArray myArray has the first element as a blank entry. It’s not the same array as I started with. My array looks like myArray[1][“name”], myArray[2][“name”], etc This seems like a bug to me. I didn’t get any satisfaction when I set the storage method as text, but then again, I couldn’t find a lesson where that format was specified. But, it seems like whether it’s binary or not, it should still read back in and decode correctly.
