I've seen examples using .get and "in" to test for keys: ....aa.get("hello", "salute") == "ciao".... ...."hello" in aa.... Can I use this .get function or "in" operator with multi-D arrays? string[string][string][string] aa; ....if (["hello"][][] in aa).... ? |

The indexes are more or less unrelated as far as the AA interface is concerned. You can implement such functionality yourself, or use an approach like string[Tuple!(string, string, string)] aa; ....if(tuple("hello","salute","ciao") in aa).... if it is compatible with your usage patterns. this maps 3 key strings to the value string in one go. |
