The "array_find_dim" Function

Syntax

array_find_dim(id, val);

Argument	Type	Description
id	array	The index of a previously-created array to search
val	any	The value to search for

Description

Searches a multidimensional array for the given value and returns the dimension in which it exists, or -1 if the value is not found in the array. If the input is not an array, but happens to match the search value regardless, 0 will be returned instead.

Example

var my_array = [ 1, 2, 3, [ "a", "b", "c", [ ".", "!", "?" ] ] ];

draw_text(25, 25, string(array_find_dim(my_array, "b")));
