mutable values to string items?

[deanhystad]

I'm really confused because this:

channels = [
    [ '#channel1', 0 ],
    [ '#channel2', 0 ],
    [ '#channel3', 0 ]

Does not appear to have anything in common with this:

channel1[1] = somevalue
channel2[1] = somevalue
channel3[1] = anothervalue

What are you starting with, and how do you want it to look after it has been processed?
