calculate each element of an array

[Jay Schille]

You could do this using arraychange(.

This works:

local oRay1, oRay2
oRay1="3"+¶+"4"+¶+"7"+¶+"8"+¶+"9"
oRay2=arraychange(oRay1, str(val(array(oRay1, 1,¶))*2), 1, ¶)
oRay2=arraychange(oRay2, str(val(array(oRay1, 2,¶))*3), 2, ¶)
oRay2=arraychange(oRay2, str(val(array(oRay1, 3,¶))+3), 3, ¶)
oRay2=arraychange(oRay2, str(val(array(oRay1, 4,¶))/4), 4, ¶)
oRay2=arraychange(oRay2, str(val(array(oRay1, 5,¶))-2), 5, ¶)

Embedding the arraychanges would be more compact:
	oRay2=
		arraychange(
			arraychange(
etc.
