Assigning Array Elements
========================

   Array elements are lvalues: they can be assigned values just like
`awk' variables:

     ARRAY[SUBSCRIPT] = VALUE

Here ARRAY is the name of your array.  The expression SUBSCRIPT is the
index of the element of the array that you want to assign a value.  The
expression VALUE is the value you are assigning to that element of the
array.
