An empty array may carry additional information to indicate what type its elements would be, if it had any. In a language with homogeneous arrays, this is typically just the type: character, numeric, or boxed. In a nested array language, the prototype may be quite complex, containing an entire nested structure. | An empty array may carry additional information to indicate what type its elements would be, if it had any.
