Hello. Again I'm still new to this javascript thing, so just would like to know if there is another way of setting the values of an array (just like declaring it);

//correct way of declaring an array and reusing
var adata = new Array('1','2','3');
//reusing of variable adata[0] = '4'; adata[1] = '5'; adata[2] = '6'

**
This part is my question; I want to declare the values of the array just like declaring them to minimize the number of lines;

//array declaration
var data = new Array('1','2','3');
//reusing of variable
data = ['4','5','6']; ---> (as an example) I get an error msg "Invalid assignment left-hand side"

is this possible? If so, what is the correct syntax? I hope I'm making sense.

Thanking you in advance.
