It would be helpful for me to have an abbreviation of the word
"array".
Or an abbreviation for an alternate word that means the same thing.
I use the word "array" as used in C, Java, or any standard language.

I am not afraid of long variable and function names. I generally
follow
the naming recommendations in "Code Complete".

But I also find special abbreviations often to be more memorable and
useful, such as cnt for count, ndx for index, pck for pick, lo / hi
for
low / high, var for variable, rng for range, max / min, etc. And I
have
some variable names that are so long that it would help me to try
abbreviating "array".

I was thinking "ara" or "ary", but am not that excited about them,
maybe because they have two syllables or maybe because I
(and others) am not used to them.

Any thoughts? Is there a standard or suggested way to abbreviate
the word "array"? I looked in "Code Complete" and searched the
internet and found very little mention.

Thanks,
Daniel

s

struct person {
int num;
char name[111];
date birth;
} persons[] =
{{ 1, "moi", 123456789}
,{ ... }
};

, but this is only possible for non-Hungarian naming.
