I don't think "unset" really does what you think it does -- deleting from the middle of an array like that. Whenever I do that I end up with "holes", indexes that still exist but have no value. Associative arrays in shell is pretty chancy anyhow, you often won't have a bash new enough, or have bash at all.

Why keep an array of arguments when you already have one, $@

A construct I often use:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

# This is a ring buffer.  Append at PIDS[$PW], read at PIDS[$PR].
# PW increments when a process is added, PR when a process dies,
# and both wrap at MAX.  Order is not important when removing
# since it shuffles the last process to whatever got deleted.
PIDS=()
PW=0
PR=0
MAX=2

running() {     # running "arrayindex"
        ps "${PIDS[$1]}" >/dev/null
}

add() {         # add "pid"
        PIDS[$PW]="$1"
        PW=$(( (PW+1)%MAX ))
        ((TOTAL++))
}

rem() {         # rem "arrayindex"
        # Take PID from the end, plunk it where the one to be deleted is
        PW=$(( (PW-1) % MAX ))
        [[ "$PW" -lt 0 ]] && PW=$((PW+MAX))

        PIDS[$PR]="${PIDS[$PW]}"
        ((TOTAL--))
}

# Start each given program in turn
for X in "$@"
do
        while [[ "$TOTAL" -ge "$MAX" ]]
        do
        for((N=0, I=PR; (TOTAL>=MAX) && (N<TOTAL); N++, I=(I+1)%MAX ))
        do
                if ! running "$I"
                then
                        rem "$I"
                        break
                fi
        done
                [[ "$TOTAL" -ge "$MAX" ]] && sleep 0.1
        done

        # Refers to array indexes, i.e. /tmp/$$-0 for array index 0.
        $X >/tmp/$$-$PW &
        add "$!"
done

while [[ "$TOTAL" -ge "$MAX" ]]
do
        for((N=0, I=PR; N<$TOTAL; N++, I=(I+1)%MAX ))
        do
                if ! running "$I"
                then
                        rem "$I"
                        break
                fi
        done
done

wait
rm -f /tmp/$$-*

       SORCSD

       Purpose:

	    SORCSD computes the CS decomposition of an M-by-M partitioned
	    orthogonal matrix X:

					    [  I  0  0 |  0  0	0 ]
					    [  0  C  0 |  0 -S	0 ]
		[ X11 | X12 ]	[ U1 |	  ] [  0  0  0 |  0  0 -I ] [ V1 |    ]**T
	    X = [-----------] = [---------] [---------------------] [---------]   .
		[ X21 | X22 ]	[    | U2 ] [  0  0  0 |  I  0	0 ] [	 | V2 ]
					    [  0  S  0 |  0  C	0 ]
					    [  0  0  I |  0  0	0 ]

	    X11 is P-by-Q. The orthogonal matrices U1, U2, V1, and V2 are P-by-P,
	    (M-P)-by-(M-P), Q-by-Q, and (M-Q)-by-(M-Q), respectively. C and S are
	    R-by-R nonnegative diagonal matrices satisfying C^2 + S^2 = I, in
	    which R = MIN(P,M-P,Q,M-Q).
