+The \spadtype{OneDimensionalArray} domain is used for storing data in a
+one-dimensional indexed data structure.
+Such an array is a homogeneous data structure in that all the entries of
+the array must belong to the same \Language{} domain.
+Each array has a fixed length specified by the user and arrays are not
+extensible.
+The indexing of one-dimensional arrays is one-based.
+This means that the ``first'' element of an array is given the index
+\spad{1}.
+See also \downlink{`Vector'}{VectorXmpPage}\ignore{Vector} and \downlink{`FlexibleArray'}{FlexibleArrayXmpPage}\ignore{FlexibleArray}.
+\xtc{
+To create a one-dimensional array, apply the
+operation \spadfun{oneDimensionalArray} to a list.

+\spadpaste{oneDimensionalArray [i**2 for i in 1..10]}

+\xtc{
+Another approach is to first create \spad{a}, a one-dimensional array of 10 \spad{0}'s.
+\spadtype{OneDimensionalArray} has the convenient abbreviation \spadtype{ARRAY1}.

+Set each \spad{i}th element to i, then display the result.

+\spadpaste{for i in 1..10 repeat a.i := i; a\bound{a1}\free{a}}

+\xtc{
+Square each element by mapping the function
+\texht{$i \mapsto i^2$}{i +-> i**2} onto each element.
+}{
+\spadpaste{map!(i +-> i ** 2,a); a\bound{a3}\free{a2}}

+Reverse the elements in place.

+Swap the \spad{4}th and \spad{5}th element.
