 /** section: Language

+ *  Prototype extends all native JavaScript arrays with quite a few powerful
+ *  methods.
+ *  
+ *  This is done in two ways:
+ *  
+ *  * It mixes in the [[Enumerable]] module, which brings a ton of methods in
+ *    already.
+ *  * It adds quite a few extra methods, which are documented in this section.
+ *  
+ *  With Prototype, arrays become much, much more than the trivial objects we
+ *  used to manipulate, limiting ourselves to using their `length` property and
+ *  their `[]` indexing operator. They become very powerful objects that
+ *  greatly simplify the code for 99% of the common use cases involving them.
+ *  
+ *  <h4>Why you should stop using for…in to iterate</h4>
+ *  
+ *  Many JavaScript authors have been misled into using the `for…in` JavaScript
+ *  construct to loop over array elements. This kind of code just won’t work
+ *  with Prototype.
+ *  
+ *  The ECMA 262 standard, which defines ECMAScript 3rd edition, supposedly
+ *  implemented by all major browsers including MSIE, defines ten methods
+ *  on Array (§15.4.4), including nice methods like `concat`, `join`, `pop`, and
+ *  `push`.
+ *  
+ *  This same standard explicitely defines that the `for…in` construct (§12.6.4)
+ *  exists to enumerate the properties of the object appearing on the right side
+ *  of the `in` keyword. Only properties specifically marked as _non-enumerable_
+ *  are ignored by such a loop. By default, the `prototype` and `length`
+ *  properties are so marked, which prevents you from enumerating over array
+ *  methods when using for…in. This comfort led developers to use `for…in` as a
+ *  shortcut for indexing loops, when it is not its actual purpose.
+ *  
+ *  However, Prototype has no way to mark the methods it adds to
+ *  `Array.prototype` as non-enumerable. Therefore, using `for…in` on arrays
+ *  when using Prototype will enumerate all extended methods as well, such as
+ *  those coming from the [[Enumerable]] module, and those Prototype puts in the
+ *  Array namespace (listed further below).
+ *  
+ *  <h4>What you should use instead</h4>
+ *  
+ *  You can revert to vanilla loops:
+ *  
+ *      for (var index = 0; index < myArray.length; ++index) {
+ *        var item = myArray[index];
+ *        // Your code working on item here...
+ *      }
+ *  
+ *  Or you can use iterators, such as [[Array#each]]:
+ *  
+ *      myArray.each(function(item) {
+ *        // Your code working on item here...
+ *      });
+ *  
+ *  
+ *  The inability to use `for...in` on arrays is not much of a burden: as you’ll
+ *  see, most of what you used to loop over arrays for can be concisely done
+ *  using the new methods provided by Array or the mixed-in [[Enumerable]]
+ *  module. So manual loops should be fairly rare.
+ *  
+ *  
+ *  <h4>A note on performance</h4>
+ *  
+ *  Should you have a very large array, using iterators with lexical closures
+ *  (anonymous functions that you pass to the iterators and that get invoked at
+ *  every loop iteration) in methods like [[Array#each]] — _or_ relying on
+ *  repetitive array construction (such as uniq), may yield unsatisfactory
+ *  performance. In such cases, you’re better off writing manual indexing loops,
+ *  but take care then to cache the length property and use the prefix `++`
+ *  operator:
+ *  
+ *      // Custom loop with cached length property: maximum full-loop
+ *      // performance on very large arrays!
+ *      for (var index = 0, len = myArray.length; index < len; ++index) {
+ *        var item = myArray[index];
+ *        // Your code working on item here...
+ *      }
+ *

 /** section: Language
  * class Template
+ *  
+ *  A class for sophisticated string interpolation.
+ *  
+ *  Any time you have a group of similar objects and you need to produce
+ *  formatted output for these objects, maybe inside a loop, you typically
+ *  resort to concatenating string literals with the object's fields. There's
+ *  nothing wrong with this approach, except that it is hard to visualize the
+ *  output immediately just by glancing at the concatenation expression. The
+ *  `Template` class provides a much nicer and clearer way of achieving this
+ *  formatting.
+ *  
+ *  <h4>Straightforward templates</h4>
+ *  
+ *  The Template class uses a basic formatting syntax, similar to what is used
+ *  in Ruby. The templates are created from strings that have embedded symbols
+ *  in the form (e.g., `#{fieldName}`) that will be replaced by actual values
+ *  when the template is applied (evaluated) to an object.
+ *  
+ *  
+ *      // the template (our formatting expression)
+ *      var myTemplate = new Template(
+ *       'The TV show #{title} was created by #{author}.');
+ *      
+ *      // our data to be formatted by the template
+ *      var show = { 
+ *        title: 'The Simpsons',
+ *        author: 'Matt Groening',
+ *        network: 'FOX'
+ *      };
+ *      
+ *      // let's format our data
+ *      myTemplate.evaluate(show);
+ *      // -> "The TV show The Simpsons was created by Matt Groening."
+ *  
+ *  <h4>Templates are meant to be reused</h4>
+ *  
+ *  As the example illustrates, `Template` objects are not tied to specific
+ *  data. The data is bound to the template only during the evaluation of the
+ *  template, without affecting the template itself. The next example shows the
+ *  same template being used with a handful of distinct objects.
+ *  
+ *  
+ *      // creating a few similar objects
+ *      var conversion1 = { from: 'meters', to: 'feet', factor: 3.28 };
+ *      var conversion2 = { from: 'kilojoules', to: 'BTUs', factor: 0.9478 };
+ *      var conversion3 = { from: 'megabytes', to: 'gigabytes', factor: 1024 };
+ *      
+ *      // the template  
+ *      var templ = new Template(
+ *       'Multiply by #{factor} to convert from #{from} to #{to}.');
+ *      
+ *      // let's format each object
+ *      [conversion1, conversion2, conversion3].each( function(conv){
+ *          templ.evaluate(conv);
+ *      });
+ *      // -> Multiply by 3.28 to convert from meters to feet.
+ *      // -> Multiply by 0.9478 to convert from kilojoules to BTUs.
+ *      // -> Multiply by 1024 to convert from megabytes to gigabytes.
+ *  
+ *  <h4>Escape sequence</h4>
+ *  
+ *  There's always the chance that one day you'll need to have a literal in your
+ *  template that looks like a symbol, but is not supposed to be replaced. For
+ *  these situations there's an escape character: the backslash (`\`).
+ *  
+ *      // NOTE: you're seeing two backslashes here because the backslash
+ *      // is also an escape character in JavaScript strings, so a literal
+ *      // backslash is represented by two backslashes.
+ *      var t = new Template(
+ *       'in #{lang} we also use the \\#{variable} syntax for templates.');
+ *      var data = { lang:'Ruby', variable: '(not used)' };
+ *      t.evaluate(data);
+ *      // -> in Ruby we also use the #{variable} syntax for templates.
+ *  
+ *  
+ *  
+ *  <h4>Custom syntaxes</h4>
+ *  
+ *  The default syntax of the template strings will probably be enough for most
+ *  scenarios. In the rare occasion where the default Ruby-like syntax is
+ *  inadequate, there's a provision for customization. `Template`'s
+ *  constructor accepts an optional second argument that is a regular expression
+ *  object to match the replaceable symbols in the template string. Let's put
+ *  together a template that uses a syntax similar to the ubiquitous `<%= %>`
+ *  constructs:
+ *  
+ *      // matches symbols like '<%= field %>'
+ *      var syntax = /(^|.|\r|\n)(\<%=\s*(\w+)\s*%\>)/; 
+ *      
+ *      var t = new Template(
+ *       '<div>Name: <b><%= name %></b>, Age: <b><%=age%></b></div>', syntax);
+ *      t.evaluate( {name: 'John Smith', age: 26} );
+ *      // -> <div>Name: <b>John Smith</b>, Age: <b>26</b></div>
+ *  
+ *  There are important constraints to any custom syntax. Any syntax must
+ *  provide at least three groupings in the regular expression. The first
+ *  grouping is to capture what comes before the symbol, to detect the backslash
+ *  escape character (no, you cannot use a different character). The second
+ *  grouping captures the entire symbol and will be completely replaced upon
+ *  evaluation. Lastly, the third required grouping captures the name of the
+ *  field inside the symbol.
+ *
