37 * @defgroup apr_tables Table and Array Functions
38 * @ingroup APR
39 * Arrays are used to store data which is referenced sequentially or
40 * as a stack.  Functions are provided to push and pop individual
41 * elements as well as to operate on the entire array.
42 *
43 * Tables are used to store data which can be referenced by key.
44 * Limited capabilities are provided for tables with multiple elements
45 * which share a key; while key lookup will return only a single
46 * element, iteration is available.  Additionally, a table can be
47 * compressed to resolve duplicates.
48 *
49 * Both arrays and tables may store string or binary data; some features,
50 * such as concatenation or merging of elements, work only for string
51 * data.
