/***

 * @Nd A simple dynamic array data structure.
 * @Dd November 24 2022
 * @Xr HashMap Queue
 *
 * These functions implement a simple array data structure that is
 * automatically resized as necessary when new values are added.  This
 * implementation does not actually store the values of the items in it;
 * it only stores pointers to the data. As such, you will still have to
 * manually maintain all your data. The advantage of this is that these
 * functions don't have to copy data, and thus don't care how big the
 * data is. Furthermore, arbitrary data can be stored in the array.
 * .Pp
 * This array implementation is optimized for storage space and
 * appending. Deletions are expensive in that all the items of the list
 * above a deletion are moved down to fill the hole where the deletion
 * occurred. Insertions are also expensive in that all the elements
 * above the given index must be shifted up to make room for the new
 * element.
 * .Pp
 * Due to these design choices, this array implementation is best
 * suited to linear writing, and then linear or random reading.
