Quick way to load an address list into an array?

RouterOS Scripting

Hi Guys,
I have a script that loads and address list into an array for further processing on the array rather than trying to muck with the address list directly.
This is the code:

# for each IP in the unchecked list load it into an array
:set i (0);
:foreach fwlist in=[/ip firewall address-list find where list=Address_list] do={
  :foreach ip in=[/ip firewall address-list get $fwlist value-name=address] do={
  :set ($array->"$i") $ip;
  :put "$ip is loaded into array at index $i"
  #remove ip from address list once loaded
  /ip firewall address-list { remove [find address=$ip list=Address_list]};
  :set i ($i + 1);
  };
 };

But it takes an age to load the addresses into the array. I’m not the greatest coder but there has to be an easier & faster way to load an Address list into an Array?

Any guidance would be appreciated :slight_smile:
