I know I am a little late to the party and this is probably the furthest thing in your mind but... have you considered writing a book or perhaps just more tutorials explaining other things that have you and, perhaps, millions of others like me, baffled? You write in a way that gets and keeps the attention of your readers'/learners'.

Including the Figure "Array Madness" was pure genius and will engage "visual" learners!

Thanks again!

P.S.
Do you happen to have other tutorials on other topics?

Javascript doesn't reserve memory when an array is created.

Also note that array sizes (unlike in many compiled languages) are not fixed. Just another difference between interpreted and compiled code.

Excellent work, but there are some things that I don't understand about the memory usage: javascript unlike java can't declare the type of an array (int, smallint, ...). So when I create a new array, is it defined automatically in type "String"? how many bytes are reserved to each position?is there a way to save memory usage?
I have to use a huge array to store a "map" of a game, and each field (map[x][y]) saves a smallint....the map is about 10000x10000 fields....it is important to save memory in this case :S

I agree. This was written when I was young and Naive, just out of college. - Actually, I have at the back of mind a follow-up to this post - A dissection of how you learn to stop being a fanboi and just get the work done with the right tool for the right job.

Hope I write that post soon enough!

This is just... totally wrong. No, really... Did you just put VB6 over C#? And Camouflaged Java? You actually havent got a clue about these languages!
