I know in C++ and C I can return an array by decalring the function like

int * foo(){
}

or
int [] foo(){
}

but in MQL this doesn't seem to work

You can't return an array. You'll have to use a global variable.

Good luck

I think I'm going to dump MQL4 as a language and look into a DLL import or some other solution.

It's a really really slow language, not powerful enough for what I want to do
