 * @title: Arrays
 * @short_description: arrays of arbitrary elements which grow
 *     automatically as elements are added
 *
 * Arrays are similar to standard C arrays, except that they grow
 * automatically as elements are added.
 *
 * Array elements can be of any size (though all elements of one array
 * are the same size), and the array can be automatically cleared to
 * '0's and zero-terminated.
 *
 * To create a new array use g_array_new().
 *
 * To add elements to an array, use g_array_append_val(),
 * g_array_append_vals(), g_array_prepend_val(), and
 * g_array_prepend_vals().
 *
 * To access an element of an array, use g_array_index().
 *
 * To set the size of an array, use g_array_set_size().
 *
 * To free an array, use g_array_free().
 *
 * Here is an example that stores integers in a #GArray:
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 *   GArray *garray;
 *   gint i;
 *   // We create a new array to store gint values.
 *   // We don't want it zero-terminated or cleared to 0's.
 *   garray = g_array_new (FALSE, FALSE, sizeof (gint));
 *   for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
 *     g_array_append_val (garray, i);
 *   for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
 *     if (g_array_index (garray, gint, i) != i)
 *       g_print ("ERROR: got %d instead of %d\n",
 *                g_array_index (garray, gint, i), i);
 *   g_array_free (garray, TRUE);
 * ]|

 * SECTION:arrays_pointer
 * @title: Pointer Arrays
 * @short_description: arrays of pointers to any type of data, which
 *     grow automatically as new elements are added
 *
 * Pointer Arrays are similar to Arrays but are used only for storing
 * pointers.
 *
 * If you remove elements from the array, elements at the end of the
 * array are moved into the space previously occupied by the removed
 * element. This means that you should not rely on the index of particular
 * elements remaining the same. You should also be careful when deleting
 * elements while iterating over the array.
 *
 * To create a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_new().
 *
 * To add elements to a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_add().
 *
 * To remove elements from a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_remove(),
 * g_ptr_array_remove_index() or g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast().
 *
 * To access an element of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_index().
 *
 * To set the size of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_set_size().
 *
 * To free a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_free().
 *
 * An example using a #GPtrArray:
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 *   GPtrArray *array;
 *   gchar *string1 = "one";
 *   gchar *string2 = "two";
 *   gchar *string3 = "three";
 *
 *   array = g_ptr_array_new ();
 *   g_ptr_array_add (array, (gpointer) string1);
 *   g_ptr_array_add (array, (gpointer) string2);
 *   g_ptr_array_add (array, (gpointer) string3);
 *
 *   if (g_ptr_array_index (array, 0) != (gpointer) string1)
 *     g_print ("ERROR: got %p instead of %p\n",
 *              g_ptr_array_index (array, 0), string1);
 *
 *   g_ptr_array_free (array, TRUE);

 * @title: Byte Arrays
 * @short_description: arrays of bytes
 *
 * #GByteArray is a mutable array of bytes based on #GArray, to provide arrays
 * of bytes which grow automatically as elements are added.
 *
 * To create a new #GByteArray use g_byte_array_new(). To add elements to a
 * #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_append(), and g_byte_array_prepend().
 *
 * To set the size of a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_set_size().
 *
 * To free a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_free().
 *
 * An example for using a #GByteArray:
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 *   GByteArray *gbarray;
 *   gint i;
 *
 *   gbarray = g_byte_array_new ();
 *   for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
 *     g_byte_array_append (gbarray, (guint8*) "abcd", 4);
 *
 *   for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
 *     {
 *       g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i] == 'a');
 *       g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+1] == 'b');
 *       g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+2] == 'c');
 *       g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+3] == 'd');
 *     }
 *
 *   g_byte_array_free (gbarray, TRUE);
 * ]|
 *
 * See #GBytes if you are interested in an immutable object representing a
 * sequence of bytes.
