Hi Andre,
Actually, my state space is more than 2x2, it's four by four. What I'd l
ike to do ultimately is to do loops that will define a lot of other
arrays with the same indices, e.g.
for state1 in [a,b,c,d] do
for state2 in [w,x,y,z] do
variable_bis[state1][state2]: 4* variable[state1][state2];
variable_ter[state1][state2]: cos(variable[state1][state2]);
(Sorry I know the loop syntax is wrong but I don't have time to check
right now.)
It would just make my life a lot easier if I didn't have to remember
what integer represented what state if I write something like
variable[1][3].
Thanks
Patrick
