var beatles = new Array("johny", "george", "ringo", "paul", "paul2");

document.write(beatles[3] + " is dead");//access the array index

<script>

//You can't always enter all your information into your array as soon as you create it, and you might not know how many items the array will include,

<script>

var myClasses = new Array();

 myClasses[0] = "Web 110: A+";

myClasses[1] = "Web 120: A+";

myClasses[2] = "ITC 280: A+";

myClasses[3] = "Web 150: A+";

myClasses[4] = "Math 85: F-";

myClasses[5] = "Phil 106: A-";

//Arrays are objects and have Properties and Methods.

 document.write(myClasses.length);

An Associative Array uses strings instead of numbers as an index

<script>
var weather = new Array();
weather["seattle"] = "party cloudy";
weather["portland"] = "chance of rain";
weather["los angeles"] = "Who Cares";

document.write("The weather will be " + weather["portland"] + " today in Portland.");
</script>
