I have an array called station_name, dimensioned (6,n). Each item is a
string 6 characters long. I would like to quickly test station_name
against a particular string variable, find_this_station, another string of
dimension 6.

Is there any way to do this without using loops?

If I have to use loops, does anyone have a tip on the fastest way to do so?

Is there are better way to configure the array station_name to make such
tests (against a particular station name) faster?

I shall appreciate any help anyone can provide.
