Another answer: You can also avoid the unnecessary (for your task) complex
[m_symbolarray] if you use data structures directly as in the attached
example. Unfortunatly creating scalars with symbol-fields is not directly
possible with [append] - at least not in 0.42 - so I had to do the additional
work of using [set -symbol ...]

Ciao
