Correct!

"[; array1 ylabel -1 0 1(" (note the semicolon!) is the same as this:
[ylabel -1 0 1 (

[s array1]
because semicolon messages are just a shortcut for senders.
In object boxes like [s ...] you can use $0 variables, so inside of the
scrolling abstraction your could use:
[ylabel -1 0 1 (

[s $0-array]
Now to let something control the array from the outside, I'd recommend
to just use an [inlet]:
[inlet]

[s $0-array]
