SOLVED Check if a variable equals any value in a array?

[mrredleg0]

So I have an array:
shake_messages = [2,3,15,16,19,20,22,23];
I want to check if a variable equals any of the numbers in the array.
How would I do this?

Use a loop and compare the value of each entry to the variable.

for loop check array index count
{
    check current value against count in array
    increase count
    if value is the same as value do something about it
}

Thank you but I figured it out.
if(ds_list_find_index(shake_messages,msg_num) != -1) {

{
This is what I needed.

As long as the thing you called an array is actually a list rather than the array you said it was, that would work. You need to ask the right questions if you want useful answers.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that I changed the array into a list.
