An array data structure that can contain a sequence of elements of any type. Elements are accessed by a numerical index starting at 0. Negative indices are used to count from the back (-1 is the last element, -2 is the second to last, etc.).
|
||||
An array data structure that can contain a sequence of elements of any [Variant] type. Elements are accessed by a numerical index starting at 0. Negative indices are used to count from the back (-1 is the last element, -2 is the second to last, etc.).
|
||||
[b]Example:[/b]
|
||||
[codeblocks]
|
||||
[gdscript]
|
||||
var array = ["One", 2, 3, "Four"]
|
||||
print(array[0]) # One.
|
||||
print(array[2]) # 3.
|
||||
print(array[-1]) # Four.
|
||||
array[2] = "Three"
|
||||
print(array[-2]) # Three.
|
||||
var array = ["First", 2, 3, "Last"]
|
||||
print(array[0]) # Prints "First"
|
||||
print(array[2]) # Prints 3
|
||||
print(array[-1]) # Prints "Last"
|
||||
|
||||
array[1] = "Second"
|
||||
print(array[1]) # Prints "Second"
|
||||
print(array[-3]) # Prints "Second"
|
||||
[/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.
|
||||
var array = new Godot.Collections.Array{"First", 2, 3, "Last"};
|
||||
GD.Print(array[0]); // Prints "First"
|
||||
GD.Print(array[2]); // Prints 3
|
||||
GD.Print(array[array.Count - 1]); // Prints "Last"
|
||||
|
||||
array[2] = "Second";
|
||||
GD.Print(array[1]); // Prints "Second"
|
||||
GD.Print(array[array.Count - 3]); // Prints "Second"
|

|

Arrays can be concatenated using the [code]+[/code] operator:
|
||||
[codeblocks]
|
||||
[gdscript]
|
||||
var array1 = ["One", 2]
|
||||
var array2 = [3, "Four"]
|
||||
print(array1 + array2) # ["One", 2, 3, "Four"]
|
||||
[/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]
|
||||
[b]Note:[/b] Arrays are always passed by reference. To get a copy of an array that can be modified independently of the original array, use [method duplicate].

|

[b]Note:[/b] Erasing elements while iterating over arrays is [b]not[/b] supported and will result in unpredictable behavior.
|
||||
[b]Differences between packed arrays, typed arrays, and untyped arrays:[/b] Packed arrays are generally faster to iterate on and modify compared to a typed array of the same type (e.g. [PackedInt64Array] versus [code]Array[int][/code]). Also, packed arrays consume less memory. As a downside, packed arrays are less flexible as they don't offer as many convenience methods such as [method Array.map]. Typed arrays are in turn faster to iterate on and modify than untyped arrays.

<description>
|
||||
Creates a typed array from the [param base] array. All arguments are required.
|
||||
- [param type] is the built-in type as a [enum Variant.Type] constant, for example [constant TYPE_INT].
|
||||
- [param class_name] is the [b]native[/b] class name, for example [Node]. If [param type] is not [constant TYPE_OBJECT], must be an empty string.
|
||||
- [param script] is the associated script. Must be a [Script] instance or [code]null[/code].
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
Creates a typed array from the [param base] array. A typed array can only contain elements of the given type, or that inherit from the given class, as described by this constructor's parameters:
|
||||
- [param type] is the built-in [Variant] type, as one the [enum Variant.Type] constants.
|
||||
- [param class_name] is the built-in class name (see [method Object.get_class]).
|
||||
- [param script] is the associated script. It must be a [Script] instance or [code]null[/code].
|
||||
If [param type] is not [constant TYPE_OBJECT], [param class_name] must be an empty [StringName] and [param script] must be [code]null[/code].

[b]Note:[/b] This constructor can be useful if you want to create a typed array on the fly, but you are not required to use it. In GDScript you can use a temporary variable with the static type you need and then pass it:
|
||||
The [param base] array's elements are converted when necessary. If this is not possible or [param base] is already typed, this constructor fails and returns an empty [Array].
|
||||
In GDScript, this constructor is usually not necessary, as it is possible to create a typed array through static typing:

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 [param before] 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.

Removes an element from the array by index. If the index does not exist in the array, nothing happens. To remove an element by searching for its value, use [method erase] instead.

[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.
|

[b]Note:[/b] [param position] cannot be negative. To remove an element relative to the end of the array, use [code]arr.remove_at(arr.size() - (i + 1))[/code]. To remove the last element from the array without returning the value, use [code]arr.resize(arr.size() - 1)[/code].

Removes the element from the array at the given index ([param position]). If the index is out of bounds, this method fails.

Returns the slice of the [Array], from [param begin] (inclusive) to [param end] (exclusive), as a new [Array].
|
||||
The absolute value of [param begin] and [param end] will be clamped to the array size, so the default value for [param end] makes it slice to the size of the array by default (i.e. [code]arr.slice(1)[/code] is a shorthand for [code]arr.slice(1, arr.size())[/code]).
|
||||
If either [param begin] or [param end] are negative, they will be relative to the end of the array (i.e. [code]arr.slice(0, -2)[/code] is a shorthand for [code]arr.slice(0, arr.size() - 2)[/code]).
|
||||
If specified, [param step] is the relative index between source elements. It can be negative, then [param begin] must be higher than [param end]. For example, [code][0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5].slice(5, 1, -2)[/code] returns [code][5, 3][/code].
|
||||
If [param deep] is true, each element will be copied by value rather than by reference.
|
||||
[b]Note:[/b] To include the first element when [param step] is negative, use [code]arr.slice(begin, -arr.size() - 1, step)[/code] (i.e. [code][0, 1, 2].slice(1, -4, -1)[/code] returns [code][1, 0][/code]).
|
||||
Returns a new [Array] containing this array's elements, from index [param begin] (inclusive) to [param end] (exclusive), every [param step] elements.
|
||||
If either [param begin] or [param end] are negative, their value is relative to the end of the array.
|
||||
If [param step] is negative, this method iterates through the array in reverse, returning a slice ordered backwards. For this to work, [param begin] must be greater than [param end].
|
||||
If [param deep] is [code]true[/code], all nested [Array] and [Dictionary] elements in the slice are duplicated from the original, recursively. See also [method duplicate]).

Sorts the array.

[b]Note:[/b] The sorting algorithm used is not [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm#Stability]stable[/url]. This means that values considered equal may have their order changed when using [method sort].
|
||||
[b]Note:[/b] Strings are sorted in alphabetical order (as opposed to natural order). This may lead to unexpected behavior when sorting an array of strings ending with a sequence of numbers. Consider the following example:
|
||||
Sorts the array in ascending order. The final order is dependent on the "less than" ([code]>[/code]) comparison between elements.

To perform natural order sorting, you can use [method sort_custom] with [method String.naturalnocasecmp_to] as follows:

[b]Note:[/b] The sorting algorithm used is not [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm#Stability]stable[/url]. This means that equivalent elements (such as [code]2[/code] and [code]2.0[/code]) may have their order changed when calling [method sort].

It may also be necessary to use this method to sort strings by natural order, with [method String.naturalnocasecmp_to], as in the following example:
|

[codeblock]
|
||||
var files = ["newfile1", "newfile2", "newfile10", "newfile11"]
|
||||
files.sort_custom(func(a, b): return a.naturalnocasecmp_to(b) < 0)
|

print(files) # Prints ["newfile1", "newfile2", "newfile10", "newfile11"]
|
||||
[/codeblock]
|

[b]Note:[/b] In C#, this method is not supported.
|
||||
[b]Note:[/b] The sorting algorithm used is not [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm#Stability]stable[/url]. This means that values considered equal may have their order changed when calling this method.
|

[b]Note:[/b] You should not randomize the return value of [param func], as the heapsort algorithm expects a consistent result. Randomizing the return value will result in unexpected behavior.
