Hi
Your A, B and C values are working as follows
A=[134, 500];
B=[134,457];
C=[134,420];
A=[150, 400];
B=[186,400];
C=[220,400];
A=[230, 420];
B=[230,436];
C=[230,457];
Therefore if you A ends up as [230, 420] which is the last value it was assigned.
a[0] has the value of [[134, 500], [134,457], [134,420]]
The structure that you are looking for is.
...a = [{
A: [134, 500],
B: [134, 457],
C: [134, 420]
}, {
A: [150, 400],
B: [186, 400],
C: [220, 400]
}, {
A: [230, 420],
B: [230, 436],
C:

Peter's example is technically wrong 
How very rare. (OTOH it was only to highlight the particular order of pathpoint points and not framed as "actual code".)
Hi Saeed,
here a sample appliction for your pascal number generator:
var n=10;
var a=pascalNumbers(n);
var doc = app.documents.add
(
{
documentPreferences :
{
pageOrientation : PageOrientation.LANDSCAPE ,
facingPages : false ,
pageWidth : "297mm" ,
pageHeight : "210mm"
}
}
);
var textFrame = doc.pages[0].textFrames.add
(
{
geometricBounds : [ "20mm" , "20mm" , "190mm" , "277mm" ] ,
appliedObjectStyle : "None" ,
contents : a.join("\r")+"\r"
}
);
var story = textFrame.parentStory;
story.texts[0].justification = Justification.CENTER_ALIGN ;
// Convert contents to tables:
story.texts[0].paragraphs.everyItem().texts.everyItem().convertToTable( "," , "\r" );
// Removing empty rows:
story.tables.everyItem().rows[-1].remove();
// Uniform width of every cell in every table of the story:
story.tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().width = textFrame.parentStory.tables[-1].cells[0].width;
function pascalNumbers(n)
{
var pascal = [];
var row0 = [ 1 ];
var row1 = [ 1,1 ];
var i , newRow , k , ;
pascal.push(row0);
pascal.push(row1);
for ( i=2; i<n+1; i++)
{
newRow=[];
newRow.push(1);
for (k=1;k<i;k++)
{
newRow.push(pascal[i-1][k-1]+pascal[i-1]
); }
newRow.push(1);
pascal.push( newRow );
}
return pascal
};

Hi Laubender,
many thanks to you and all people in this forum who give help.
you gave me an idea of application i am looking for.This application working well except for the prime number.
Here is the application
//add document
addDocumentWithPrimaryTextFrames();
// calculate the number of polygon at the bottom of the page
numberOfObjects=numberOfObjectAtTheBase();
// objectsArray is to contain polygon from bottom in order up
var objectsArray=[];
objectsArray.push(app.selection[0]);
//add the polygon starting from the bottom
addObjectHorizentaly(numberOfObjects-18)
for(i=numberOfObjects-19;i>0;i--)
{
addObjectVirticaly();
addObjectHorizentaly(i);
}
//insert the pascal in the polygons
pascalNumbers();
// color the polygon one some criteria such as color odd numbers , even numbers , prime number....
colorPascal();
