in reply to Re^4: loop over n-dimensional lattice
in thread loop over n-dimensional lattice

Apologies if it muddled the question.

Not at all. It's just that you will have to represent your theoretical construct with an actual structure. If arrays work, they are cheaper in memory and performance than say hashes, which could probably also be used. But obviously, the mechanism for iterating a hash-based representation of your lattices, would require different coding methods.
