Common Errors and Considerations in Arrays:

1. Static Array Declaration with Variable Subscript

   Issue: Declaring a static array using a variable as the upper bound, such as:

   n = InputBox("Enter the array upper bound")

   Dim a(1 To n) As Integer

2. Array Subscript Out of Range

   Problem: Referring to a subscript that is outside the declared range. Example:

   Dim a(1 To 30) As Long, i%

   a(1) = 1: a(2) = 1

   For i = 2 To 30

   a(i) = a(i - 2) + a(i - 1)

   a(0) does not exist

   Next i

3. Array Dimensional Error

   Issue: Using a different number of dimensions when referencing the array elements than those declared.

   Example:

   Dim a(3, 5) As Long

   a(i) = 10 is incorrect

4. Aarry Function Usage Problem

   Note: The Aarry function can only assign values to Variant variables or dynamic arrays.

5. Getting Array Upper and Lower Bounds

   Use the Ubound and Lbound functions to retrieve the upper and lower bounds of an array.
