Sending an array member to file

This may be a dupe, but the problem is not complex,it is simple issue.

I can create an array of string(s) located in positioning parameters for further processing. Works as expected.

Now I like to send / write each string , space separated words , into a file.

Of course I tried different ways , but so far no success.

So I need help, again.

Here is the snippet of scrip

Code:

for i in {2..32..2}; do
  104  MenuArray[$i]=$i$Space$menuCommand
  106  #append to file  
  107 echo "$LINENO array $MenuArray[$i]"  
  108 pause


HERE IS THE PROBLEM 

 append array member  to file
 

 109  echo "$MenuArray[$i]" >> "$PWD$DEBUG_DIR$DEBUG_MENU"


  110  echo "$LINENO  appeded to file "
  111  pause   
  112  ((i++))
  113     MenuArray[$i]=$menuDescription
  114      ((i++))
  115       done     
  116        echo "${MenuArray[@]}"
  117 :<<"cut"

And here is an output - it "writes " an array member "index" to file

Code:

   	 	 	 	   + i=0
 + for i in {2..32..2}
 + MenuArray[$i]='2 CLI Command'
 + echo '107 array [2]'
 107 array [2]
 + pause

bsearch

BSEARCH(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							BSEARCH(3)

NAME

       bsearch - binary search of a sorted array.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       void *bsearch(const void *key, const void *base, size_t nmemb,
	      size_t size, int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));

DESCRIPTION

       The bsearch() function searches an array of nmemb objects, the initial member of which is pointed to by base, for a member that matches the
       object pointed to by key.  The size of each member of the array is specified by size.

       The contents of the array should be in ascending sorted order according to the comparison function referenced by compar.  The  compar  rou-
       tine  is  expected  to have two arguments which point to the key object and to an array member, in that order, and should return an integer
       less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the key object is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than the array
       member.

RETURN VALUE

       The  bsearch()  function returns a pointer to a matching member of the array, or NULL if no match is found.  If there are multiple elements
       that match the key, the element returned is unspecified.
