procedure xreflect~setarrayentry(entityname:string,indices:list of xreflect~basicvalue,newval:xreflect~basicvalue)
Arguments
entityname 
The name of the public entity to access
indices 
A list containing one value for each index set of the given array
newval 
The value to insert into the array
Return value
A basicvalue containing the array entry for the given index values
Example
The following: 
public declarations
  myvar: dynamic array(set of integer,set of integer) of real,
end-declarations
myvar(1,100) := 5.0
myvar(1,101) := 5.1
myvar(2,101) := 5.2
setarrayentry( 'myvar', [basicvalue(1),basicvalue(101)], basicvalue(17.5) )
writeln('myvar(1,101)=',myvar(1,101))
produces this output: 
myvar(1,101)=17.5
