Hello All,

I'm looking for a smart way to implement multideminsional arrays in
beta. Is there a smart way to do that or is it necessary to use a
1-dimensional repitition and make a map function of some kind?

In other words I'm looking for something like this:

\begin{not proper beta Syntax}

 twoDimRep : [10][5] ^integerObject;
...
 &integerObject[]->twoDimRep[3][3][];
 5->twoDimRep[3][3];

\end{not proper beta Syntax}


How can I code something like that in _legal_ Beta? Small pieces of
code, refs to FAQ's or other ressources would be highly appreciated :)

Regards,
Michael Hoehle
