Arrays are variables that can contain a number of strings, and each one can be looked up by its index and key. Unlike arrays in other languages, array keys in Tcl are strings, not integers, and array members can contain strings of differing lengths. You'll start this module learning about the basics of arrays, and go on to learn some of the wider uses and extra power that's provided by their somewhat unusual specification, taught by example.
