Thank you! Anyway what I was really asking was a "$" (or whatever other symbol) in place of ":" for sum, that is a
notationlike 

myarray_col[12$16]

would give the sum of all values from myarray_col[12] to myarray_col[16]

Anyway, I was reading that multidimensional arrays must have matching dimensions (that is, they can't be, for example,
[5][9]).
Is this right? Why is that?



Thank you
