Disliked{quote} you were on the right track. Now I fixed the necessary. You can think of an array as a place where you have a lot of slots which are indexed with numbers, you can put a number in each slot. more info here (easy understandable source). You can imagine Buffer as memory area containing numeric values of an indicator array.

OK, thank you, I think I have it. It still only shows the blue line but how does this look?
