Problem:

   I have seveal undefined objects/vrbls (?) in an array.  I wish each of 
these objects to
   acquire a new value in a loop thru the array and
   my brain has gone dead again :(

// Assume :

var a,b,c,d ;

var abcd = [a,b,c,d] ;

var somestr = "" ;

for (var i= 0; i<abcd.length; i++) {
   somestr = i.toString() ;
   // I wish to place the current value of somestr in each
   // of the named but undefined objects/vrbls that are carried in the abcd 
array

   // e.g.,
   abcd[i] = somestr ;  // but this, of course, ruins everything :(

   // what is the correct statement please ?
   }

Result I wish here is:

// a has value '0'
// b has value '1'
// c has value '2'
// d has value '3'


Thanks for (another) kick-in-the-butt.
