            verb
                BuyStock()
                    set hidden=1
                    var/amount=winget(src,"Franchises.stockinput","text")
                    var/type=winget(src,"Franchises.franchiselabel","text")
                    var/stock="src.store.[type]stock"
                    src << "[stock]"
                    stock+=text2num(amount)


I know that the above code is wrong, but how do i go about making it so that i don't have to code in the stocking of each franchise separately and make it so that i only need a few lines of code vs. a lot.

The variables im trying to edit are store.nike, store.applestock, etc. store being mob/var/store/store, going to a datum.

an associative array so that you can call stock["Nike"] seems to be what your looking for. If I am wrong or you don't understand please explain what you are trying to do a little more as I'm trying to figure out what you are really asking for.
