 *
 *  In the first form, if no arguments are sent, the new array will be empty.

 *    # => [0, 1, 4]
 *
 *  == Common gotchas
 *

 *  value for all the array elements:

 *     a = Array.new(2, Hash.new)
 *     # => [{}, {}]
 *

 *
 *     a[1]['cat'] = 'Felix'
 *     a # => [{"cat"=>"Felix"}, {"cat"=>"Felix"}]
 *
 *  Since all the Array elements store the same hash, changes to one of them
 *  will affect them all.

 *
 *  By using binary search, finds a value from this array which meets

 *
 *  You can use this method in two use cases: a find-minimum mode and
 *  a find-any mode.  In either case, the elements of the array must be
 *  monotone (or sorted) with respect to the block.
 *
 *  In find-minimum mode (this is a good choice for typical use case),
 *  the block must return true or false, and there must be an index i
 *  (0 <= i <= ary.size) so that:
 *
 *  - the block returns false for any element whose index is less than
 *    i, and
 *  - the block returns true for any element whose index is greater
 *    than or equal to i.
 *
 *  This method returns the i-th element.  If i is equal to ary.size,
 *  it returns nil.
 *
 *     ary = [0, 4, 7, 10, 12]
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| x >=   4 } #=> 4
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| x >=   6 } #=> 7
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| x >=  -1 } #=> 0
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| x >= 100 } #=> nil
 *
 *  In find-any mode (this behaves like libc's bsearch(3)), the block
 *  must return a number, and there must be two indices i and j
 *  (0 <= i <= j <= ary.size) so that:
 *
 *  - the block returns a positive number for ary[k] if 0 <= k < i,
 *  - the block returns zero for ary[k] if i <= k < j, and
 *  - the block returns a negative number for ary[k] if
 *    j <= k < ary.size.
 *
 *  Under this condition, this method returns any element whose index
 *  is within i...j.  If i is equal to j (i.e., there is no element
 *  that satisfies the block), this method returns nil.
 *
 *     ary = [0, 4, 7, 10, 12]
 *     # try to find v such that 4 <= v < 8
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| 1 - x / 4 } #=> 4 or 7
 *     # try to find v such that 8 <= v < 10
 *     ary.bsearch {|x| 4 - x / 2 } #=> nil
 *
 *  You must not mix the two modes at a time; the block must always
 *  return either true/false, or always return a number.  It is
 *  undefined which value is actually picked up at each iteration.

 *  Arrays are ordered, integer-indexed collections of any object.

 *  the last element of the array, -2 is the next to last element in the
 *  array, and so on.
 *
 *  == Creating Arrays
 *
 *  A new array can be created by using the literal constructor
 *  <code>[]</code>.  Arrays can contain different types of objects.  For
 *  example, the array below contains an Integer, a String and a Float:
 *
 *     ary = [1, "two", 3.0] #=> [1, "two", 3.0]
 *
 *  An array can also be created by explicitly calling Array.new with zero, one
 *  (the initial size of the Array) or two arguments (the initial size and a
 *  default object).
 *
 *     ary = Array.new    #=> []
 *     Array.new(3)       #=> [nil, nil, nil]
 *     Array.new(3, true) #=> [true, true, true]
 *
 *  Note that the second argument populates the array with references to the
 *  same object.  Therefore, it is only recommended in cases when you need to
 *  instantiate arrays with natively immutable objects such as Symbols,
 *  numbers, true or false.
 *
 *  To create an array with separate objects a block can be passed instead.
 *  This method is safe to use with mutable objects such as hashes, strings or
 *  other arrays:
 *
 *     Array.new(4) { Hash.new } #=> [{}, {}, {}, {}]
 *
 *  This is also a quick way to build up multi-dimensional arrays:
 *
 *     empty_table = Array.new(3) { Array.new(3) }
 *     #=> [[nil, nil, nil], [nil, nil, nil], [nil, nil, nil]]
 *
 *  An array can also be created by using the Array() method, provided by
 *  Kernel, which tries to call #to_ary, then #to_a on its argument.
 *
 *	Array({:a => "a", :b => "b"}) #=> [[:a, "a"], [:b, "b"]]
 *
 *  == Example Usage
 *
 *  In addition to the methods it mixes in through the Enumerable module, the
 *  Array class has proprietary methods for accessing, searching and otherwise
 *  manipulating arrays.
 *
 *  Some of the more common ones are illustrated below.
 *
 *  == Accessing Elements
 *
 *  Elements in an array can be retrieved using the Array#[] method.  It can
 *  take a single integer argument (a numeric index), a pair of arguments
 *  (start and length) or a range.
 *
 *     arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *     arr[2]    #=> 3
 *     arr[100]  #=> nil
 *     arr[-3]   #=> 4
 *     arr[2, 3] #=> [3, 4, 5]
 *     arr[1..4] #=> [2, 3, 4, 5]
 *
 *  Another way to access a particular array element is by using the #at method
 *
 *     arr.at(0) #=> 1
 *
 *  The #slice method works in an identical manner to Array#[].
 *
 *  To raise an error for indices outside of the array bounds or else to
 *  provide a default value when that happens, you can use #fetch.
 *
 *     arr = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
 *     arr.fetch(100) #=> IndexError: index 100 outside of array bounds: -6...6
 *     arr.fetch(100, "oops") #=> "oops"
 *
 *  The special methods #first and #last will return the first and last
 *  elements of an array, respectively.
 *
 *     arr.first #=> 1
 *     arr.last  #=> 6
 *
 *  To return the first +n+ elements of an array, use #take
 *
 *     arr.take(3) #=> [1, 2, 3]
 *
 *  #drop does the opposite of #take, by returning the elements after +n+
 *  elements have been dropped:
 *
 *     arr.drop(3) #=> [4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  == Obtaining Information about an Array
 *
 *  Arrays keep track of their own length at all times.  To query an array
 *  about the number of elements it contains, use #length, #count or #size.
 *
 *    browsers = ['Chrome', 'Firefox', 'Safari', 'Opera', 'IE']
 *    browsers.length #=> 5
 *    browsers.count #=> 5
 *
 *  To check whether an array contains any elements at all
 *
 *    browsers.empty? #=> false
 *
 *  To check whether a particular item is included in the array
 *
 *    browsers.include?('Konqueror') #=> false
 *
 *  == Adding Items to Arrays
 *
 *  Items can be added to the end of an array by using either #push or #<<
 *
 *    arr = [1, 2, 3, 4]
 *    arr.push(5) #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 *    arr << 6    #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  #unshift will add a new item to the beginning of an array.
 *
 *     arr.unshift(0) #=> [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  With #insert you can add a new element to an array at any position.
 *
 *     arr.insert(3, 'apple')  #=> [0, 1, 2, 'apple', 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  Using the #insert method, you can also insert multiple values at once:
 *
 *     arr.insert(3, 'orange', 'pear', 'grapefruit')
 *     #=> [0, 1, 2, "orange", "pear", "grapefruit", "apple", 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  == Removing Items from an Array
 *
 *  The method #pop removes the last element in an array and returns it:
 *
 *     arr =  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *     arr.pop #=> 6
 *     arr #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 *
 *  To retrieve and at the same time remove the first item, use #shift:
 *
 *     arr.shift #=> 1
 *     arr #=> [2, 3, 4, 5]
 *
 *  To delete an element at a particular index:
 *
 *     arr.delete_at(2) #=> 4
 *     arr #=> [2, 3, 5]
 *
 *  To delete a particular element anywhere in an array, use #delete:
 *
 *     arr = [1, 2, 2, 3]
 *     arr.delete(2) #=> 2
 *     arr #=> [1,3]
 *
 *  A useful method if you need to remove +nil+ values from an array is
 *  #compact:
 *
 *     arr = ['foo', 0, nil, 'bar', 7, 'baz', nil]
 *     arr.compact  #=> ['foo', 0, 'bar', 7, 'baz']
 *     arr          #=> ['foo', 0, nil, 'bar', 7, 'baz', nil]
 *     arr.compact! #=> ['foo', 0, 'bar', 7, 'baz']
 *     arr          #=> ['foo', 0, 'bar', 7, 'baz']
 *
 *  Another common need is to remove duplicate elements from an array.
 *
 *  It has the non-destructive #uniq, and destructive method #uniq!
 *
 *     arr = [2, 5, 6, 556, 6, 6, 8, 9, 0, 123, 556]
 *     arr.uniq #=> [2, 5, 6, 556, 8, 9, 0, 123]
 *
 *  == Iterating over Arrays
 *
 *  Like all classes that include the Enumerable module, Array has an each
 *  method, which defines what elements should be iterated over and how.  In
 *  case of Array's #each, all elements in the Array instance are yielded to
 *  the supplied block in sequence.
 *
 *  Note that this operation leaves the array unchanged.
 *
 *     arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 *     arr.each { |a| print a -= 10, " " }
 *     # prints: -9 -8 -7 -6 -5
 *     #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 *
 *  Another sometimes useful iterator is #reverse_each which will iterate over
 *  the elements in the array in reverse order.
 *
 *     words = %w[first second third fourth fifth sixth]
 *     str = ""
 *     words.reverse_each { |word| str += "#{word} " }
 *     p str #=> "sixth fifth fourth third second first "
 *
 *  The #map method can be used to create a new array based on the original
 *  array, but with the values modified by the supplied block:
 *
 *     arr.map { |a| 2*a }   #=> [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
 *     arr                   #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 *     arr.map! { |a| a**2 } #=> [1, 4, 9, 16, 25]
 *     arr                   #=> [1, 4, 9, 16, 25]
 *
 *  == Selecting Items from an Array
 *
 *  Elements can be selected from an array according to criteria defined in a
 *  block.  The selection can happen in a destructive or a non-destructive
 *  manner.  While the destructive operations will modify the array they were
 *  called on, the non-destructive methods usually return a new array with the
 *  selected elements, but leave the original array unchanged.
 *
 *  === Non-destructive Selection
 *
 *     arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *     arr.select { |a| a > 3 }     #=> [4, 5, 6]
 *     arr.reject { |a| a < 3 }     #=> [3, 4, 5, 6]
 *     arr.drop_while { |a| a < 4 } #=> [4, 5, 6]
 *     arr                          #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *
 *  === Destructive Selection
 *
 *  #select! and #reject! are the corresponding destructive methods to #select
 *  and #reject
 *
 *  Similar to #select vs. #reject, #delete_if and #keep_if have the exact
 *  opposite result when supplied with the same block:
 *
 *     arr.delete_if { |a| a < 4 } #=> [4, 5, 6]
 *     arr                         #=> [4, 5, 6]
 *
 *     arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
 *     arr.keep_if { |a| a < 4 } #=> [1, 2, 3]
 *     arr                       #=> [1, 2, 3]
 *
