Good afternoon, everyone.
I am trying to select a arrayrect and insert a TEXT with the number of array elements into the drawing.
But the array is not selected.
How do I set the array selection correctly?

(defun c:CountElemArrayrect (/ ss n pt)
  (princ "Select a arrayrect: ")
  (setq ss (ssget '((0 . "ARRAY"))) 
        n 0)
  (if ss
    (progn
      (setq n (vla-get-Count
                (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname ss 0))))
      (princ (strcat "The number of elements in the array: " (itoa n)))
      (princ "Specify the insertion point of the text: ")
      (setq pt (getpoint))
      (if pt
        (entmakex
          (list
            (cons 0 "TEXT")
            (cons 10 pt)
            (cons 1 (itoa n))
            (cons 40 25) ; text height
            (cons 7 (getvar "TEXTSTYLE"))
          )
        )
      )
    )
  )
  (princ)
)

If you inspect the DXF data for a rectangular array (e.g. using my Entity List program, for example), you will see that it is in fact a block reference (INSERT).

Consider the following function to obtain the data from the array:

(defun LM:arraydata ( ent / enx lst rtn )
    (if
        (and
            (setq enx (entget ent))
            (= "INSERT" (cdr (assoc 0 enx)))
            (setq lst
                (vl-some
                    (function
                        (lambda ( x )
                            (if (and (= 330 (car x)) (= "ACDBASSOCDEPENDENCY" (cdr (assoc 0 (entget (cdr x))))))
                                (cdr (assoc 330 (entget (cdr x))))
                            )
                        )
                    )
                    (member '(102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS") enx)
                )
            )
            (setq lst (entget lst))
            (setq lst (cons nil (member (assoc 1 lst) lst)))
        )
        (while lst
            (setq rtn (cons (cons (cdadr lst) (cdar (cddddr lst))) rtn)
                  lst (cdddr (cddddr lst))
            )
        )
    )
    (reverse rtn)
)


Call with the array block reference entity, e.g.:

(LM:arraydata (car (entsel)))

The code writes the same amount for arrays with different numbers of elements...

(defun c:ArrCountTxt ( / ent arrData count insPt txtHeight)
  (prompt "Select a arrayrect: ")
  (setq ent (car (entsel)))
  (if (and ent (= "INSERT" (cdr (assoc 0 (entget ent)))))
    (progn
            (setq arrData (LM:arraydata ent))
      ;; count the number of elements
      (setq count (length arrData))
      
      (princ (strcat "Number of array elements: " (itoa count)))
     
      (prompt "Specify the insertion point of the text: ")
      (setq insPt (getpoint))
      
      (setq txtHeight 20)
      
      (entmake
        (list
          (cons 0 "TEXT")
          (cons 8 (cdr (assoc 8 (entget ent)))) ; 
          (cons 10 insPt)
          (cons 40 txtHeight)
          (cons 1 (strcat "Quantity: " (itoa count)))
          (cons 7 "Standard") 
          (cons 50 0.0)
        )
      )
    )
      )
  (princ)
)

(defun LM:arraydata ( ent / enx lst rtn )
  (if
    (and
      (setq enx (entget ent))
      (= "INSERT" (cdr (assoc 0 enx)))
      (setq lst
        (vl-some
          (function
            (lambda ( x )
              (if (and (= 330 (car x)) (= "ACDBASSOCDEPENDENCY" (cdr (assoc 0 (entget (cdr x))))))
                  (cdr (assoc 330 (entget (cdr x))))
              )
            )
          )
          (member '(102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS") enx)
        )
      )
      (setq lst (entget lst))
      (setq lst (cons nil (member (assoc 1 lst) lst)))
    )
    (while lst
      (setq rtn (cons (cons (cdadr lst) (cdar (cddddr lst))) rtn)
            lst (cdddr (cddddr lst))
      )
    )
  )
  (reverse rtn)
)

Did you even look at the data that my function returns?

I've looked at the data, but I need professional help...

How can I count elements in an array in lisp?

This is the first time I’ve ever done an “autopsy” on an object like this.
I’ve carefully extracted what seemed to me to be the information I was looking for.
So I must say:

DRIVE CAREFULLY AND RESPECT ALL STOP SIGNS. 🚦

P.S.:

This is just my two cents — though to be honest, it’s probably counterfeit 😅

No, I mean the data returned by my (LM:arraydata) function - you just assumed you should use the length of the list, without actually checking what the list contains.
