starray – A structured array (of properties) based on expl3

This package implements vector-like ’structures’, like in ’C’ and other programming languages. So it is possible to store information in a systematic and regular way. The provided ’functions’ are similar to the ones provided for property (or sequence, or token) lists.

The package is based on expl3 and aimed at package authors, not end users.

The name “starray” is an abbreviation for “structured arrays”.
