DIM statement

(From "dimension") A {keyword} in most versions

of the {BASIC} programming language that declares the size of

an {array}. E.g.

DIM A(100)

declares a one-dimensional array with 101 numeric elements

(including A(0)).

{Visual Basic} uses the DIM (or "Dim") statement for any

variable declaration, even {scalars}, e.g.

Dim DepartmentNumber As Integer

which declares a single (scalar) variable of type Integer.
