Also don't forget arrayselectedbuild. Same as arraybuild but selected
records only.

Another good one is arraystrip, which eliminates blank elements from an
array. I'll often use this after an arrayfilter.

Once you've mastered those check out superarraybuild. It has many more
parameters, so is a bit more complex to use. So I use arraybuild or
arrayselectedbuild most of the time, but sometimes superarraybuild is
just the ticket.
