They often will appear to use contiguous memory - but don't count on it. These days memory fragmentation isn't as much of an issue (pretty much a non-issue really, especially on OSes with buddy-heap type memory managers) but you could conceivably create an array larger than your largest block of free memory. From what I can tell, BlitzMAX arrays are more like ArrayLists than traditional arrays.
