  1. If array is not defined as an array, the routine returns error.

  2. If index is not number the routine returns error.

 

Starting with version 2.5 we added the indexing operator. It will work on arrays, strings, dates and interval.
You can simply write in your programs watchers[12] = currentUser() to refer to the 13 th element in the watchers array.
