Hi,

I have an object with large number of similar fields (like more than 10 of them) and I have to assign them values from an array of variable length. The solution would be either a huge nested bunch of ifs based on checking length of array each time and assigning each field

OR

a chain of ifs checking on whether the length is out of bounds and assigning each time after that check.

Both seem to be repetitive. Is there a better solution ?
