Just wondering thor, isn’t it unnecessary to reverse something twice? Curious minds want to know 😉

…on a more relevant note, I have never used prototypes before, but they seem really useful! I may have to give that a shot sometime. I only barely started using Event Handlers a few weeks ago 🙂

> \*Originally posted by thoriphes \*using prototypes are a way to add a common function to an existing object type, like movieclip, or Array, or even math.

when you create a new object, a set of functions are available for that object. for example, array has split, pop, push, etc…you can add a function like reverseX2 like this:

```auto
Array.prototype.reverseX2 = function () {
this.reverse();
this.reverse();
};

```

which is completely unecessary (it reverses the order of an array twice :sigh:\*\*), **but for the sake of example, shut up!**

now everytime you make a new Array object, you can use that function:

```auto
arr1 = new Array();
for (i = 0; i < 10; ++i) arr1* = i;
arr1.reverseX2(); // array is now the same as it's always been, but we did something !

```

See how it works? mind you though, that prototypes will only work with the same objects. reverseX2 will not work on a MovieClip or Sound object. the keyword “prototype” is telling flash to apply this functions to all objects of this type.  
:whistle:

[just a side note - I was searching my name]  
Master64 - you can still put in pickup lines at:  
[http://www.freddythunder.com/home.php?goto=footer](http://www.freddythunder.com/home.php?goto=footer)

hahaha!!!  
I got like 200 pickup lines in the four days it was up. I’ll update it soon!!
