+The utpl script language supports declaring arrays using JSON notation.

+-- Expect stdout --
+[ ]
+[ "first", "second", 123, [ "a", "nested", "array" ], { "a": "nested object" } ]
+-- End --
+
+-- Testcase --
+{%
+	// An empty array can be declared using a pair of square brackets
+	empty_array = [ ];
+
+	// JSON notation is used to declare an array with contents
+	json_array = [
+		"first",
+		"second",
+		123,
+		[ "a", "nested", "array" ],
+		{ a: "nested object" }
+	];
+
+	// Printing (or stringifying) arrays will return their JSON representation
+	print(empty_array, "\n");
+	print(json_array, "\n");
+-- End --

+
+Additionally, utpl implements ES6-like spread operators to allow shallow copying
+of array values into other arrays.
+
+-- Expect stdout --
+[ 1, 2, 3 ]
+[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ]
+[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, false, true ]
+[ 1, 2, 3, false, true, 4, 5, 6 ]

+-- Testcase --

+
+		// combining two arrays
+		[ ...a1, ...a2 ],

+Contrary to merging arrays into objects, objects cannot be merged into arrays.
