For example: In[1]:= h = ConstantArray[0, {3, 3}]; Using Increment: In[2]:= h[[1, 2]]++ Out[2]= 0 In[3]:= h Out[3]= 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Using AddTo: In[4]:= h[[2, 3]] += 10 Out[4]= 10 In[5]:= h Out[5]= 0 1 0 0 0 10 0 0 0 Carl Woll Wolfram Research >The nearest I came to a solution was with: > > > >>h[[##]] & @@ i = "x" >> >> > >but I immediately get: > > > >>Set::write: Tag Apply in (s[[##1]]&)@@{1,2,1} is Protected. >> >> >> > >Do you have any idea on this? > >thank you! > >Alessandro Magni > > >
