I’m trying to figure out how to name multiple bitmapdataclass variables to accompany movie clips created in a for loop.

I can name the movieclips with

```auto
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_"+i, 10);

```

but I want to create a bitmapdata variable for each of those movie clips and name it similarly like bmd\_1, bmd\_2,… …bmd\_n.

How would I go about this?
