Or if you want to create an array with elements already in it (this works both for array and collections) you can also do

~~~~~~~~~~

{ anElement } "dynamic array syntax, Pharo-only"

~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~

#('element') "static array, works only for scalars"

~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Array with: anElement "constructor method, works also with more elements... Array class>>with:with:with:..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OrderedCollection with: anElement "as above, but creates a collection instead"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi guys,

Is there any way to add an element to an empty array (must not use new: anElement)?

Cheers

It sounds like you want to use an OrderedCollection, not an Array.
Those will grow and shrink as needed when you use add:/remove: calls.
