FUNCTION: LBound( )
LBound(ArrayName, Dimension)
The LBound function returns the lower limit for the elements in an array.
By default, in the current versions of VBScript, the
LBound function always returns a zero.
There is one mandatory argument.
ArrayName
The ArrayName argument is the name of the array.
Do not include the parenthesis with the
array name.
Code:
<% Dim catarray(3) %>
<% catarray(0) = "Mountain lion"
%>
<% catarray(1) =
"Bobcat" %>
<% catarray(2)
= "Jaguar" %>
<%
=LBound(catarray) %>
Output:
0
There is one optional argument.
Dimension
The optional Dimension argument is used to identify which index you are
determining the lower bounds for in a multi-dimensional array.
Code:
<% Dim fisharray(2,3) %>
<% fisharray(0,0) = "Neon tetra"
%>
<% fisharray(0,1) = "Angle
fish" %>
<% fisharray(0,2) =
"Discus" %>
<%
fisharray(1,0) = "Golden dojo" %>
<% fisharray(1,1) = "Clown loach" %>
<% fisharray(1,2) = "Betta" %>
<% =LBound(fisharray, 2) %>
Output:
0
