Hi folks!
Our community is growing rapidly, and the knowledge base is incredibly vast. Whether you're a newbie, confused, and unsure where to start, or a seasoned IRIS veteran who occasionally forgets a few basic rules (it's normal and happens to everyone!), you'll find this brief overview of IRIS basics and all its wonders useful.
Here I'd like to begin a series of articles dedicated to this topic.
There will be eight main topics in total:

1. InterSystems ObjectScript
2. Build with REST APIs
3. Managing Data Models
4. Explore Integrated ML
5. Interoperability & Integrations
6. Introduction to IRIS HealthShare products
7. Analytics & Business Intelligence
8. Deployment & DevOps

Each of them will consist of four parts: Courses, Community articles, Documentation, Applications

This particular part will cover InterSystems ObjectScript. For your convenience, all categories will be hidden under a spoiler.

Hi Community,

Do you build and manage applications with InterSystems IRIS SQL?

🎓Two tiers of certifications—specialist and professional (new!)—are now available! 

Sorry for the weird question, but mumps skills are very rusty.

Am trying to create globals dynamically, but with using names from an array. For example: 

S Names="A,B,Y,Z"
S A=$L(Names,"$")
F I=1:1:A D
//Create globals based on names from database
//^A,  ^B,  ^Y, ^Z etc..
