  <p>
    Arrays are ordered, integer-indexed collections of any object.
    Array indexes start at 0, as in C or Java.  A negative index is
    relative to the end of the array; that is, an index of -1
    indicates the last element of the array, -2 is the next-to-last
    element in the array, and so on.
