Usage 3: The following example creates an array with three defined elements:
var myArray:Array = Array("firstElement", "secondElement", "thirdElement");
trace (myArray); // traces firstElement,secondElement,thirdElement
Unlike the Array class constructor, the Array() function does not use the
keyword new .

value is

false
otherwise.

In files published for Flash Player 7 or later, the result is
true
if the string has a length
greater than zero; the value is
false
for an empty string.

specified, while the Boolean() function returns undefined if no parameter is specified.
