It looks like the asterisk character is interpreted as something
different inside the brackets of an array.
This interpretation is not a string '*', so that would explain the
error of trying to use the string in this context.

Is anyone familiar with how to reformat the * in such a way so as the
interpreter would recognize it ?

Thanks in advance,
