For the other question

in internal when you wrote :
dim tictactoe as interger[3]
gambas do :
Dim TicTacToe as New Integer[]
TicTacToe.resize(3)


When you wrote

Dim TicTacToe as Integer[]
You have give a type to TicTacToe but you need then to instanciate a
new array and assing it to this variable
by

TicTacToc = New Integer[]


A dynamic array is an object you can pass it throught procedure byref
and between classes ... it's really powerfull.. it's an object :)
