Print out values in a while loop each time into an array.

I want this while loop to print out the endlocation each time into an array. How do I do this?

   while startcounter<7088
      while start{1,1}(startcounter)>stop{1,1}(endcounter);
          endcounter=(endcounter)+1;
          endlocation=stop{1,1}(endcounter);
      end
      startcounter=startcounter+1;
  end

A semicolon at the end of the line suppresses output [ reference ], so displaying output is a matter of just remove the semicolon from your existing statement:

If you want to print out the value of endlocation in the inner loop, just remove the semi-colon:

 endlocation=stop{1,1}(endcounter)

If you want to print out the value in the outer loop, add a new line with just the variable name (and no semi-colon) where/when you want it displayed.

 endlocation

So this is the number that it displays, however, I thought it would display each location inside the array every time and place those values into a new array. Am I missing something?

The entire array will be displayed, but endlocation looks to a scalar (non-array) value.

If you're trying to debug this, I recommend settings a breakpoint and single-stepping through this loop. Keep you eyes on the Workspace windows and look for unexpected values.
