+  @namespace
+  
+  This module implements Observer-friendly Array-like behavior.  This mixin is 
+  picked up by the Array class as well as other controllers, etc. that want to  
+  appear to be arrays.
+  
+  Unlike SC.Enumerable, this mixin defines methods specifically for 
+  collections that provide index-ordered access to their contents.  When you
+  are designing code that needs to accept any kind of Array-like object, you
+  should use these methods instead of Array primitives because these will 
+  properly notify observers of changes to the array. 
+  
+  Although these methods are efficient, they do add a layer of indirection to
+  your application so it is a good idea to use them only when you need the 
+  flexibility of using both true JavaScript arrays and "virtual" arrays such
+  as controllers and collections.
+  
+  You can use the methods defined in this module to access and modify array 
+  contents in a KVO-friendly way.  You can also be notified whenever the 
+  membership if an array changes by changing the syntax of the property to
+  .observes('*myProperty.[]') .
+  
+  To support SC.Array in your own class, you must override two
+  primitives to use it: replace() and objectAt().  
+  
+  Note that the SC.Array mixin also incorporates the SC.Enumerable mixin.  All
+  SC.Array-like objects are also enumerable.
