However, I have never needed to use an Array, but I get the basic concept down - and I *do* know how to search to find out what I need, unfortunately, this one is stumping me. I'm trying to enter the code I have found as closely as possible, and just changing the names to be specific to what I want, instead of using the typical "c", or "x", etc.

*What* is not working? There are no obvious bugs in your script. On a 
side note: constructors should start with an uppercase letter.
