A grid of cubes

[McWolfe]

Just from the top of my head.. but wouldn't it work using the Duplicate command. Just create one cube, and then use duplicate with the right settings to create the grid.

I want to create a grid of cubes, but cant find a good way to do it.
If anyone could help, it would be very kindly

This is what i have so far:

{
//Create a grid of cubes
int $cubeW =10 ; //no of cubes in X
int $cubeB =10 ; //no of cubes in Z


//Creating the Cubes


int $noCubeW = 0;
int $noCubeB = 0;

while ($noCubeW <= $cubeW)
{

while ($noCubeB <= $cubeB)
{polyCube -w 1
-h 1
-d 1
-sx 1
-sy 1
-sz 1
-ax 0 1 0
-tx 1
-ch 1;

move -r $noCubeB 0 $noCubeW;
$noCubeB++;
}


$noCubeW++;
}

But, it dont work....

Thanks for you time:)

I was also thinking of that, but I am not sure how to turn all the boxes into a string/selection

Thanks

all idividual shapes:
$sizeX = 10;
$sizeZ = 10;

for( $x=0; $x<$sizeX; $x++ )
for( $z=0; $z<$sizeZ; $z++ )
{
polyCube;
move -a ($x-($sizeX/2.0)) 0 ($z-($sizeZ/2.0));
}

Instances:
$sizeX = 10;
$sizeZ = 10;

polyCube;
for( $x=0; $x<$sizeX; $x++ )
for( $z=0; $z<$sizeZ; $z++ )
{
instance;
move -a ($x-($sizeX/2.0)) 0 ($z-($sizeZ/2.0));
}
