VERSION: All Current Versions
I tend to define an array as collection of data in a specific, organized, identical and repeated order. This applies to the way the data is presented, not the data itself. You might think of it like a group of marching soldiers. Each is doing the same thing as a whole but each individual piece is quite different. They are just moving in ... well ... a specific, organized, identical and repeated order.
Example of a simple array
Red
Green
Blue
Example of a more complex array
You can use repeating fields like an array but they are fixed. You can create arrays as a text value and then parse them as necessary.
