Generic array datatype.
</brief_description>
<description >
2019-06-22 01:04:47 +02:00
Generic array which can contain several elements of any type, accessible by a numerical index starting at 0. Negative indices can be used to count from the back, like in Python (-1 is the last element, -2 the second to last, etc.).
[b]Example:[/b]
2020-07-31 16:07:26 +02:00
[codeblocks]
[gdscript]
2018-07-17 11:47:27 +02:00
var array = ["One", 2, 3, "Four"]
2020-01-23 18:41:49 +01:00
print(array[0]) # One.
print(array[2]) # 3.
print(array[-1]) # Four.
2018-07-17 11:47:27 +02:00
array[2] = "Three"
2020-01-23 18:41:49 +01:00
print(array[-2]) # Three.
2020-07-31 16:07:26 +02:00
[/gdscript]
[csharp]
var array = new Godot.Collections.Array{"One", 2, 3, "Four"};
GD.Print(array[0]); // One.
GD.Print(array[2]); // 3.
GD.Print(array[array.Count - 1]); // Four.
array[2] = "Three";
GD.Print(array[array.Count - 2]); // Three.
[/csharp]
[/codeblocks]
2020-02-27 23:33:31 +01:00
Arrays can be concatenated using the [code]+[/code] operator:
2020-07-31 16:07:26 +02:00
[codeblocks]
[gdscript]
2020-02-27 23:33:31 +01:00
var array1 = ["One", 2]
var array2 = [3, "Four"]
print(array1 + array2) # ["One", 2, 3, "Four"]
2020-07-31 16:07:26 +02:00
[/gdscript]
[csharp]
// Array concatenation is not possible with C# arrays, but is with Godot.Collections.Array.
var array1 = new Godot.Collections.Array("One", 2);
var array2 = new Godot.Collections.Array(3, "Four");
GD.Print(array1 + array2); // Prints [One, 2, 3, Four]
[/csharp]
[/codeblocks]
2020-11-14 14:17:55 +01:00
[b]Note:[/b] Concatenating with the [code]+=[/code] operator will create a new array, which has a cost. If you want to append another array to an existing array, [method append_array] is more efficient.
2020-05-16 23:52:40 +02:00
[b]Note:[/b] Arrays are always passed by reference. To get a copy of an array which can be modified independently of the original array, use [method duplicate].
2020-11-14 14:17:55 +01:00
[b]Note:[/b] When declaring an array with [code]const[/code], the array itself can still be mutated by defining the values at individual indices or pushing/removing elements. Using [code]const[/code] will only prevent assigning the constant with another value after it was initialized.

[b]Note:[/b] Calling this function is not the same as writing [code]array[-1][/code]. If the array is empty, accessing by index will pause project execution when running from the editor.

Finds the index of an existing value (or the insertion index that maintains sorting order, if the value is not yet present in the array) using binary search. Optionally, a [code]before[/code] specifier can be passed. If [code]false[/code], the returned index comes after all existing entries of the value in the array.

Finds the index of an existing value (or the insertion index that maintains sorting order, if the value is not yet present in the array) using binary search and a custom comparison method. Optionally, a [code]before[/code] specifier can be passed. If [code]false[/code], the returned index comes after all existing entries of the value in the array. The custom method receives two arguments (an element from the array and the value searched for) and must return [code]true[/code] if the first argument is less than the second, and return [code]false[/code] otherwise.

2018-04-10 10:12:42 +02:00
Returns a copy of the array.
2019-02-24 03:56:10 +01:00
If [code]deep[/code] is [code]true[/code], a deep copy is performed: all nested arrays and dictionaries are duplicated and will not be shared with the original array. If [code]false[/code], a shallow copy is made and references to the original nested arrays and dictionaries are kept, so that modifying a sub-array or dictionary in the copy will also impact those referenced in the source array.

2021-01-25 21:14:30 +01:00
Removes the first occurrence of a value from the array. To remove an element by index, use [method remove] instead.
[b]Note:[/b] This method acts in-place and doesn't return a value.
[b]Note:[/b] On large arrays, this method will be slower if the removed element is close to the beginning of the array (index 0). This is because all elements placed after the removed element have to be reindexed.

Assigns the given value to all elements in the array. This can typically be used together with [method resize] to create an array with a given size and initialized elements:
