     These functions allow you to interact with and manipulate
     arrays in various ways. Arrays are essential for storing,
     managing, and operating on sets of variables.

    <para>
     Simple and multi-dimensional arrays are supported, and may be

     There are specific database handling functions for populating
     arrays from database queries, and several functions return arrays.
