help with arduino

[hambobolubia]

Hello I am writing an arduino sketch and would like to set an array equal to another array based on a variable if that make any sense....

i have an analog read thats reading an array of 3 inputs and i want to set that equal to another array but based on a counter

 

here are  may arrays

const int SliderPin[3] = {14,15,16};

int CurrentProfile = 0;

int Profile_0[3]={0,0,0};
int Profile_1[3]={0,0,0};
int Profile_2[3]={0,0,0};
int Profile_3[3]={0,0,0};

 

 

and here is the code i have so far

 

  if (CurrentProfile > 3) {
    CurrentProfile = 0;
    };
  analogRead(SliderPin) = Profile_(CurrentProfile);

 

hopfully you can see what i want to do im trying to make the program as small as possible so i can port it to cheeper (and smaller) chips as the rest of the code is quite lengthy

  if (CurrentProfile > 3) {
    CurrentProfile = 0;
    };
  analogRead(SliderPin) = Profile_ + CurrentProfile;

This should do the trick, I don't have the means to test it right now

i tried that and i get 

 

'Profile_' was not declared in this scope

could i have an array of arrays? does that make sense?

[myselfolli]

That's called a jagged array (or multidemensional), and it's possible, yes

but do the lower end atmegas/atinys support it? and do you think that would be a easier option? 

[myselfolli]

They should support it alright. As for ease of use: the other option obviously isn't working for you, so do you really have a choice?

 

I'll go look some stuff up, brb

im doing the same time for reading (woot!)

ok so this is what iv come up with so far still dosent work but i thing im making progress

 

Vars

int CurrentProfile = 0;

int Profile[4][3]={
  {0,0,0},
  {0,0,0},
  {0,0,0},
  {0,0,0}
  };

 

and program

  if (CurrentProfile > 3) {
    CurrentProfile = 0;
    };
  analogRead(SliderPin) = Profile[CurrentProfile];

 

hopefull its just a syntax thing but heres my error

lvalue required as left operand of assignment
