In this example, the Obtain Step Names step in the sequence writes the name of all of the steps contained in the Main step group to an array of strings that is a local variable. This example demonstrates how to use expression functions to complete the following tasks:

1. Determine the number of steps in a sequence.
2. Set the dimensions of an array.
3. Dynamically control the number of loops on a step.
4. Obtain the name of specific steps within a sequence.
5. Write a variable number of strings to an array variable.
6. Combine a variable number of strings into one long string for display in a Message Popup.
