Insert commas in a table/array
I have a table, of the form
documentclass[hyper,12pt,A4paper]{article}
usepackage{latexsym,amsmath,amsfonts,amssymb}
begin{document}
begin{align}
begin{array}{cccc}
ab=0 & cd=1 & efgh=-1 & pqr=30
end{array}
end{align}
end{document}
but of course, with many many more rows and columns. The output of this looks like this:
But instead, I would like to put commas between successive entries, to make it look something like this:
(with no comma after the last entry in a particular row). Of course, this is trivial to do by hand if there are only a few entries in the table. But I have about 50 such tables and each has a dimension of 5x5 or more. These tables were generated as output from some Mathematica code which is even harder to retrospectively modify.
So my question is: is there a way to modify the begin{array}{cccc}...end{array} to something which is schematically like begin{array}{c,c,c,c}...end{array} (which in this form is wrong -- I know!)?

why do you have an array here these are equations not matrices so thearraylayer is not needed (and makes it harder to get good output)

the answer to the question as asked isbegin{array}{c@{,}c@{,}c@{,}c}but I suspect it is the wrong question.

A rather easy solution would be, to define your own separator, like defsep{unskip, &} and using this in your tables instead of the & sign (the unskip removes the spaces before the ,). With this, you could just going once through all your tables and replace the & sign with your defined command.
