How to pass in a count to dynamic json object

Question

Im very new to javascript. Im trying to make a way of counting from 0-5, and placing those numbers in a pair and then calling a function to click on boxes correlating to their index value. here is what i have so far:

* table deviceValsTable
     | boxLocator    | indexList |
     | brandCheckbox |   [0,1]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [0,2]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [0,3]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [0,4]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [0,5]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [1,2]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [1,3]   |
     | brandCheckbox |   [ect..]   |
 * def indexList = karate.get('indexList')
    * def locator = karate.get('boxLocator')
    * def boxes = locateAll(locator)
    * def clickBox = function(index){ boxes.get(index).click()}
    * karate.map(indexList, clickBox)

I need to do this 16 times

Probably best to use a Scenario Outline: https://github.com/intuit/karate#data-driven-tests

Scenario Outline:
* print indexList

Examples:
| indexList! |
| [0, 1]     |
| [2, 0]     |

Note that Scenario Outline-s can take a dynamic data-source: https://github.com/intuit/karate#dynamic-scenario-outline
