There's this approach:
set _matrix to {¬
"apple", "orange", "banana", "mango", "tomato", ¬
"tomato", "apple", "apple", "tomato", "apple", ¬
"orange", "banana", "banana", "tomato", "mango", ¬
"mango", "tomato", "apple", "orange", "orange", ¬
"apple", "mango", "tomato", "banana", "orange"}
set x to (ASCII number (some item of {"a", "b", "c", "d", "e"})) - 97
--set x relative to zero
set y to (ASCII number (some item of {"v", "w", "x", "y", "z"})) - 117
--set y relative to 1
set z to item ((x * 5) + y) of _matrix --get nth item of the matrix
which is good where you have to sketch out, on a bit of paper, the
matrix. Cos then you just copy it into the script. If you can 'zone'
the matrix (i.e. collect like results together) even better.
