Array to call sequential clip numbers

I have clips that are numbered sequentially that i call in actionscript as:

this.showback.onRollOver = function(){
      fadeout(clip1);
      fadeout(clip2);
      fadeout(clip3);
      fadeout(clip4);
      fadeout(clip5);
      fadeout(clip6);
      fadeout(clip7);
      fadeout(clip8);

is there anyway create an array of other method that would enable me to call the function once, and fillin the numbers (1-8).  Something like

fadeout(clip[num])  ?

Better suggested code will be using an extra variable to store the value first before using
You may say is only fancy stuff, but it worths, especially for debugging purpose

temp_clip_name = ""
for(var i = 0;  i<5; i++)
{
     temp_clip_name = "clip" add i;
     fadeout(holdingClip[temp_clip_name]);
}

Savong, works great and the coding is basic enough not to have debugging issues...woo
