public dynamic class Array

The Array class lets you access and manipulate indexed arrays. An indexed array is an object
whose properties are identified by a number representing their position in the array. This
number is referred to as the index. All indexed arrays are zero-based, which means that the first
element in the array is [0], the second element is [1], and so on. To create an Array object, you
use the constructor new Array(). To access the elements of an array, you use the array access
([]) operator.
You can store a wide variety of data types in an array element, including numbers, strings,
objects, and even other arrays. You can create a multidimensional array by creating an indexed
array and assigning to each of its elements a different indexed array. Such an array is
considered multidimensional because it can be used to represent data in a table.
Array assignment is by reference rather than by value: when you assign one array variable to
another array variable, both refer to the same array:
var oneArray:Array = new Array("a", "b", "c");
var twoArray:Array = oneArray; // Both array variables refer to the same
array.
twoArray[0] = "z";
trace(oneArray); // Output: z,b,c.
