then you could construct the tablenames dynamically either with
[makefilename %darray] or with [symbol $1array(, and you get the benefit
of being able to easily expand the number of slots with stuff like
[slot 3] which in turn calls [table $1array].

with newer versions of pd (>=0.40) you can also use $args within the
symbols (e.g. [symbol array$1(
