How can I add 1D array at the bottom of another 1D array?

[aj595]

I know this is a basic or stupid question, but I can't find any exsited functions Vis to that kind of operation. thanks for your help.

Use the build array function. Resize the build array function for two inputs. Wire each array to to an input, then right click on the build array funcion and select concatenate inputs. The result will be a 1D array with the second array added on to the end of the first.
Enjoy!

If what you want is to add two 1D arrays to be a longer 1D array use build
array and right click on it and choose concatenate.

yes, i have the same problem, the 2 answeres above would concatenate the second array to the END of the first array. what we need is an additional row BELOW the first.

Hi loko,

just use the same approach, but without concatenation... (Maybe you have to transpose the resulting 2d array to fit your needs.)

Hello... i require continuously adding 1 d arrays below the existing 1 d array? is that possible?

You can insert an empty row below the first array. just check the attachment

Use shift register in while loop to save the previous loop array result and give that as first input to concatenate array function. This way you can continuously add an array below the existing array...

Do read in detail all the replies given before your query ( especially SteveA and Gred's)

That will help u find answer for your query.

what the last poster 'Reddy' has shown will build a multi dimension array with each input array as one dimension

Note: If you want to just keep adding 1D array to an existing array, use buld array. But click on the 'build array' function and enable concatenate arrays in drop down menu.

Using shift registers would give me an error " you have connected two arrays of different dimensions". This is with " concatenate inputs" option disabled.

Please understand that what I require is that I want to place, to an existing 1 d array, another 1 d array BELOW the first array... so the result would be a 2 row array. THEN, continuously adding another 1 ROW array to the 2 ROW array so it becomes a 3 row array then a 4 row array then a 5 row array... Not a 1 D array getting longer and longer....

THanks for the help...

lokomokoeh,

Plz pose your queries as lucidly  as possible to get a clear answer.

If the case is as you have explained now, then Reddy's example is an the ideal approach
