Pass 2-dim array

[Charles Dietz]

The following short program seems to pass a 2-dim array, V(2,3)
alright, but I was surprised to find that I didn't have to somehow
specify in the SUB argument list. In fact, in a Jan 25, 2000 response
on this forum, Lance indicated the need to specify V(2) in the
argument list, which seemed reasonable to me. But that syntax
doesn't compile.

Am I passing the arrays correctly? Or is it some sort of anomaly
that It seems to work in this simple example?

#COMPILE EXE

SUB orth(R() AS DOUBLE, V() AS DOUBLE)
   MSGBOX STR$(V(1, 2))
END SUB

FUNCTION PBMAIN()
   DIM R(3) AS DOUBLE, V(2, 3) AS DOUBLE
   V(1,2) = 12
   orth R(), V()
END FUNCTION

Yes, you are passing them correctly.

The arr(2) syntax is a PB/DOS parameter prototype characteristic, not for PB/Windows compilers.
