I like "buffer", although it's not a name that makes it immediately obvious that the type has a relationship to vectors/lists. Another possibility is to just accept overloading of existing terms, and to use "arraylist", which anyone familiar with Java will immediately recognize. I'm not a fan of "field", it's too overloaded of a term and it usually refers to a binding or a text input GUI widget. On 10/8/20 5:59 AM, Marc Nieper-Wißkirchen wrote: > Am Do., 8.
