= ffillArray =
''Requires FM 1.0 Beta 9.0c (28 May 2008) or newer''

== Syntax ==
:{{bool ffillArray (int nr, double dval)}}
== Arguments ==
:'''nr'''
::Number of the array. Values from 0 to 99 are allowed.
:'''dval'''
::Floating-point value to fill the Array

== Return ==

Returns ((true)) if successful, or ((false)) if an error occurred (e.g., incorrect value for nr or byte-size of Array).

== Description ==
Function for filling an Array with a certain floating-point value; e.g., for initializing all elements of the Array to -0.5. The byte-size of the Array must be 2, 4, or 8.  If the byte-size is 2 or 4, dval will be converted from ((double)) to ((half)) (16-bit) or ((float)) (32-bit), resp., format before storing it in the Array.

== Example ==
<code>
%ffp
OnFilterStart:{
	allocArray (0,100,0,0,4);
	ffillArray (0, -0.5);
	Info ("The Array was filled with the value: %g", fgetArray(0, rnd(0,99) ,0,0) );
	freeArray(0);	
	return false;
}
</code>
