Array Basics

Select Filter Equivalent below.

Icon Name Description / Applications
ArrayIndices

Creates an array of element indices, i.e. {0, 1, 2, ..., N-1}, where N is the length of the input array.

FindAll

Finds all locations of a given value in the input array.

FindFirst

Finds first location of a given value in the input array.

FindLast

Finds last location of a given value in the input array.

FisFilter_ArraySize

Returns the number of elements in an array.

FisFilter_CreateArray

Creates an array from up to 8 individual objects.

FisFilter_CreateUniformArray

Creates an array of the specified size with all elements initialized to the specified value.

FisFilter_GetArrayArrayElement

Extracts a single element from an array at the specified index.

FisFilter_GetArrayArrayElement_OrNil

Extracts a single element from an array at the specified index; returns NIL if the index is out of range.

FisFilter_GetArrayElement

Extracts a single element from an array at the specified index.

FisFilter_GetArrayElement_OrNil

Extracts a single element from an array at the specified index; returns NIL if the index is out of range.

FisFilter_GetArrayElements

Extracts up to 8 individual elements from an array.

FisFilter_GetArrayElements_OrNil

Extracts up to 8 individual elements from an array or NIL for indices out of range.

FisFilter_GetMultipleArrayElements

Extracts multiple elements from an array.

FisFilter_GetRandomElements

Get random array elements with repeating values or not.

FisFilter_SetArrayArrayElement

Sets an element of an array of arrays to a new value.

FisFilter_SetArrayElement

Sets an element of an array to a new value.

FisFilter_SetMultipleArrayElements

Sets elements of an array to new values.

FisFilter_TestArrayEmpty

Tests whether the size of an array equals zero.

FisFilter_TestArrayNotEmpty

Tests whether the size of an array does not equal zero.

FisFilter_TestArraySizeEqualTo

Tests whether the size of an array equals the given value.

FisFilter_TestArraySizeInRange

Tests whether the number of elements in the input array falls into the specified range.

FisFilter_TestArrayWithNils

Tests whether an array contains Nil elements.

FisFilter_TestArrayWithNilsOnly

Tests whether an array contains no other elements than Nils.

FisFilter_TestArrayWithoutNils

Tests whether an array does not contain Nil elements.

SkipArrayWithNils

If the input array contains no Nil values, then it is copied to the output; otherwise Nil is returned.


Changes an array with conditional elements into a conditional array. Can be useful if some processing should be performed only when all expected objects are correctly detected.

SkipEmptyArray

If the input array is not empty, then it is copied to the output; otherwise Nil is returned.


Secures against domain errors caused by empty arrays, e.g. just before the GetMaximumElement filter is to be invoked.

SkipLongArray

If the input array is short enough, then it is copied to the output; otherwise Nil is returned.


Secures against domain errors caused by arrays having too many elements.

SkipNotSingle

If the input array has exactly one element, then the element is copied to the output; otherwise Nil is returned.


Changes execution mode from array mode to conditional mode.

SkipShortArray

If the input array has enough elements, then it is copied to the output; otherwise Nil is returned.


Secures against domain errors caused by arrays having too few elements, e.g. just before the FitSegmentToPoints filter is to be invoked.

SkipUnequalSizeArrays

If the input arrays have equal size, then they are copied to the output; otherwise Nils are returned.
