{

("Getting Around","Base","exit","exit([code])

   Quit (or control-D at the prompt). The default exit code is zero,
   indicating that the processes completed successfully.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","quit","quit()

   Calls \"exit(0)\".

"),

("Getting Around","Base","atexit","atexit(f)

   Register a zero-argument function to be called at exit.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","isinteractive","isinteractive()

   Determine whether Julia is running an interactive session.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","whos","whos([Module,] [pattern::Regex])

   Print information about global variables in a module, optionally
   restricted to those matching \"pattern\".

"),

("Getting Around","Base","edit","edit(file::String[, line])

   Edit a file optionally providing a line number to edit at. Returns
   to the julia prompt when you quit the editor.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","edit","edit(function[, types])

   Edit the definition of a function, optionally specifying a tuple of
   types to indicate which method to edit.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","less","less(file::String[, line])

   Show a file using the default pager, optionally providing a
   starting line number. Returns to the julia prompt when you quit the
   pager.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","less","less(function[, types])

   Show the definition of a function using the default pager,
   optionally specifying a tuple of types to indicate which method to
   see.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","clipboard","clipboard(x)

   Send a printed form of \"x\" to the operating system clipboard
   (\"copy\").

"),

("Getting Around","Base","clipboard","clipboard() -> String

   Return the contents of the operating system clipboard (\"paste\").

"),

("Getting Around","Base","require","require(file::String...)

   Load source files once, in the context of the \"Main\" module, on
   every active node, searching the system-wide \"LOAD_PATH\" for
   files. \"require\" is considered a top-level operation, so it sets
   the current \"include\" path but does not use it to search for
   files (see help for \"include\"). This function is typically used
   to load library code, and is implicitly called by \"using\" to load
   packages.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","reload","reload(file::String)

   Like \"require\", except forces loading of files regardless of
   whether they have been loaded before. Typically used when
   interactively developing libraries.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","include","include(path::String)

   Evaluate the contents of a source file in the current context.
   During including, a task-local include path is set to the directory
   containing the file. Nested calls to \"include\" will search
   relative to that path. All paths refer to files on node 1 when
   running in parallel, and files will be fetched from node 1. This
   function is typically used to load source interactively, or to
   combine files in packages that are broken into multiple source
   files.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","include_string","include_string(code::String)

   Like \"include\", except reads code from the given string rather
   than from a file. Since there is no file path involved, no path
   processing or fetching from node 1 is done.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","help","help(name)

   Get help for a function. \"name\" can be an object or a string.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","apropos","apropos(string)

   Search documentation for functions related to \"string\".

"),

("Getting Around","Base","which","which(f, args...)

   Show which method of \"f\" will be called for the given arguments.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","@which","@which()

   Evaluates the arguments to the function call, determines their
   types, and calls the \"which\" function on the resulting expression

"),

("Getting Around","Base","methods","methods(f)

   Show all methods of \"f\" with their argument types.

"),

("Getting Around","Base","methodswith","methodswith(typ[, showparents])

   Show all methods with an argument of type \"typ\". If optional
   \"showparents\" is \"true\", also show arguments with a parent type
   of \"typ\", excluding type \"Any\".

"),

("Getting Around","Base","@show","@show()

   Show an expression and result, returning the result

"),

("Getting Around","Base","versioninfo","versioninfo([verbose::Bool])

   Print information about the version of Julia in use. If the
   \"verbose\" argument is true, detailed system information is shown
   as well.

"),

("All Objects","Base","is","is(x, y)

   Determine whether \"x\" and \"y\" are identical, in the sense that
   no program could distinguish them. Compares mutable objects by
   address in memory, and compares immutable objects (such as numbers)
   by contents at the bit level. This function is sometimes called
   \"egal\". The \"===\" operator is an alias for this function.

"),

("All Objects","Base","isa","isa(x, type)

   Determine whether \"x\" is of the given type.

"),

("All Objects","Base","isequal","isequal(x, y)

   True if and only if \"x\" and \"y\" have the same contents. Loosely
   speaking, this means \"x\" and \"y\" would look the same when
   printed. This is the default comparison function used by hash
   tables (\"Dict\"). New types with a notion of equality should
   implement this function, except for numbers, which should implement
   \"==\" instead. However, numeric types with special values might
   need to implement \"isequal\" as well. For example, floating point
   \"NaN\" values are not \"==\", but are all equivalent in the sense
   of \"isequal\". Numbers of different types are considered unequal.
   Mutable containers should generally implement \"isequal\" by
   calling \"isequal\" recursively on all contents.

"),

("All Objects","Base","isless","isless(x, y)

   Test whether \"x\" is less than \"y\". Provides a total order
   consistent with \"isequal\". Values that are normally unordered,
   such as \"NaN\", are ordered in an arbitrary but consistent
   fashion. This is the default comparison used by \"sort\". Non-
   numeric types that can be ordered should implement this function.
   Numeric types only need to implement it if they have special values
   such as \"NaN\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","ifelse","ifelse(condition::Bool, x, y)

   Return \"x\" if \"condition\" is true, otherwise return \"y\". This
   differs from \"?\" or \"if\" in that it is an ordinary function, so
   all the arguments are evaluated first.

"),

("All Objects","Base","lexcmp","lexcmp(x, y)

   Compare \"x\" and \"y\" lexicographically and return -1, 0, or 1
   depending on whether \"x\" is less than, equal to, or greater than
   \"y\", respectively. This function should be defined for
   lexicographically comparable types, and \"lexless\" will call
   \"lexcmp\" by default.

"),

("All Objects","Base","lexless","lexless(x, y)

   Determine whether \"x\" is lexicographically less than \"y\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","typeof","typeof(x)

   Get the concrete type of \"x\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","tuple","tuple(xs...)

   Construct a tuple of the given objects.

"),

("All Objects","Base","ntuple","ntuple(n, f::Function)

   Create a tuple of length \"n\", computing each element as \"f(i)\",
   where \"i\" is the index of the element.

"),

("All Objects","Base","object_id","object_id(x)

   Get a unique integer id for \"x\". \"object_id(x)==object_id(y)\"
   if and only if \"is(x,y)\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","hash","hash(x)

   Compute an integer hash code such that \"isequal(x,y)\" implies
   \"hash(x)==hash(y)\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","finalizer","finalizer(x, function)

   Register a function \"f(x)\" to be called when there are no
   program-accessible references to \"x\". The behavior of this
   function is unpredictable if \"x\" is of a bits type.

"),

("All Objects","Base","copy","copy(x)

   Create a shallow copy of \"x\": the outer structure is copied, but
   not all internal values. For example, copying an array produces a
   new array with identically-same elements as the original.

"),

("All Objects","Base","deepcopy","deepcopy(x)

   Create a deep copy of \"x\": everything is copied recursively,
   resulting in a fully independent object. For example, deep-copying
   an array produces a new array whose elements are deep-copies of the
   original elements.

   As a special case, functions can only be actually deep-copied if
   they are anonymous, otherwise they are just copied. The difference
   is only relevant in the case of closures, i.e. functions which may
   contain hidden internal references.

   While it isn't normally necessary, user-defined types can override
   the default \"deepcopy\" behavior by defining a specialized version
   of the function \"deepcopy_internal(x::T, dict::ObjectIdDict)\"
   (which shouldn't otherwise be used), where \"T\" is the type to be
   specialized for, and \"dict\" keeps track of objects copied so far
   within the recursion. Within the definition, \"deepcopy_internal\"
   should be used in place of \"deepcopy\", and the \"dict\" variable
   should be updated as appropriate before returning.

"),

("All Objects","Base","isdefined","isdefined(object, index | symbol)

   Tests whether an assignable location is defined. The arguments can
   be an array and index, a composite object and field name (as a
   symbol), or a module and a symbol.

"),

("All Objects","Base","convert","convert(type, x)

   Try to convert \"x\" to the given type. Conversions from floating
   point to integer, rational to integer, and complex to real will
   raise an \"InexactError\" if \"x\" cannot be represented exactly in
   the new type.

"),

("All Objects","Base","promote","promote(xs...)

   Convert all arguments to their common promotion type (if any), and
   return them all (as a tuple).

"),

("All Objects","Base","oftype","oftype(x, y)

   Convert \"y\" to the type of \"x\".

"),

("All Objects","Base","identity","identity(x)

   The identity function. Returns its argument.

"),

("Types","Base","super","super(T::DataType)

   Return the supertype of DataType T

"),

("Types","Base","issubtype","issubtype(type1, type2)

   True if and only if all values of \"type1\" are also of \"type2\".
   Can also be written using the \"<:\" infix operator as \"type1 <:
   type2\".

"),

("Types","Base","<:","<:(T1, T2)

   Subtype operator, equivalent to \"issubtype(T1,T2)\".

"),

("Types","Base","subtypes","subtypes(T::DataType)

   Return a list of immediate subtypes of DataType T.  Note that all
   currently loaded subtypes are included, including those not visible
   in the current module.

"),

("Types","Base","subtypetree","subtypetree(T::DataType)

   Return a nested list of all subtypes of DataType T.  Note that all
   currently loaded subtypes are included, including those not visible
   in the current module.

"),

("Types","Base","typemin","typemin(type)

   The lowest value representable by the given (real) numeric type.

"),

("Types","Base","typemax","typemax(type)

   The highest value representable by the given (real) numeric type.

"),

("Types","Base","realmin","realmin(type)

   The smallest in absolute value non-subnormal value representable by
   the given floating-point type

"),

("Types","Base","realmax","realmax(type)

   The highest finite value representable by the given floating-point
   type

"),

("Types","Base","maxintfloat","maxintfloat(type)

   The largest integer losslessly representable by the given floating-
   point type

"),

("Types","Base","sizeof","sizeof(type)

   Size, in bytes, of the canonical binary representation of the given
   type, if any.

"),

("Types","Base","eps","eps([type])

   The distance between 1.0 and the next larger representable
   floating-point value of \"type\". The only types that are sensible
   arguments are \"Float32\" and \"Float64\". If \"type\" is omitted,
   then \"eps(Float64)\" is returned.

"),

("Types","Base","eps","eps(x)

   The distance between \"x\" and the next larger representable
   floating-point value of the same type as \"x\".

"),

("Types","Base","promote_type","promote_type(type1, type2)

   Determine a type big enough to hold values of each argument type
   without loss, whenever possible. In some cases, where no type
   exists which to which both types can be promoted losslessly, some
   loss is tolerated; for example, \"promote_type(Int64,Float64)\"
   returns \"Float64\" even though strictly, not all \"Int64\" values
   can be represented exactly as \"Float64\" values.

"),

("Types","Base","promote_rule","promote_rule(type1, type2)

   Specifies what type should be used by \"promote\" when given values
   of types \"type1\" and \"type2\". This function should not be
   called directly, but should have definitions added to it for new
   types as appropriate.

"),

("Types","Base","getfield","getfield(value, name::Symbol)

   Extract a named field from a value of composite type. The syntax
   \"a.b\" calls \"getfield(a, :b)\", and the syntax \"a.(b)\" calls
   \"getfield(a, b)\".

"),

("Types","Base","setfield","setfield(value, name::Symbol, x)

   Assign \"x\" to a named field in \"value\" of composite type. The
   syntax \"a.b = c\" calls \"setfield(a, :b, c)\", and the syntax
   \"a.(b) = c\" calls \"setfield(a, b, c)\".

"),

("Types","Base","fieldoffsets","fieldoffsets(type)

   The byte offset of each field of a type relative to the data start.
   For example, we could use it in the following manner to summarize
   information about a struct type:

      structinfo(T) = [zip(fieldoffsets(T),names(T),T.types)...]
      structinfo(Stat)

"),

("Types","Base","fieldtype","fieldtype(value, name::Symbol)

   Determine the declared type of a named field in a value of
   composite type.

"),

("Types","Base","isimmutable","isimmutable(v)

   True if value \"v\" is immutable.  See *Immutable Composite Types*
   for a discussion of immutability.

"),

("Types","Base","isbits","isbits(T)

   True if \"T\" is a \"plain data\" type, meaning it is immutable and
   contains no references to other values. Typical examples are
   numeric types such as \"Uint8\", \"Float64\", and
   \"Complex{Float64}\".

"),

("Types","Base","isleaftype","isleaftype(T)

   Determine whether \"T\" is a concrete type that can have instances,
   meaning its only subtypes are itself and \"None\" (but \"T\" itself
   is not \"None\").

"),

("Types","Base","typejoin","typejoin(T, S)

   Compute a type that contains both \"T\" and \"S\".

"),

("Types","Base","typeintersect","typeintersect(T, S)

   Compute a type that contains the intersection of \"T\" and \"S\".
   Usually this will be the smallest such type or one close to it.

"),

("Generic Functions","Base","method_exists","method_exists(f, tuple) -> Bool

   Determine whether the given generic function has a method matching
   the given tuple of argument types.

   **Example**: \"method_exists(length, (Array,)) = true\"

"),

("Generic Functions","Base","applicable","applicable(f, args...)

   Determine whether the given generic function has a method
   applicable to the given arguments.

"),

("Generic Functions","Base","invoke","invoke(f, (types...), args...)

   Invoke a method for the given generic function matching the
   specified types (as a tuple), on the specified arguments. The
   arguments must be compatible with the specified types. This allows
   invoking a method other than the most specific matching method,
   which is useful when the behavior of a more general definition is
   explicitly needed (often as part of the implementation of a more
   specific method of the same function).

"),

("Generic Functions","Base","|>","|>(x, f)

   Applies a function to the preceding argument which allows for easy
   function chaining.

   **Example**: \"[1:5] |> x->x.^2 |> sum |> inv\"

"),

("Syntax","Base","eval","eval(expr::Expr)

   Evaluate an expression and return the value.

"),

("Syntax","Base","@eval","@eval()

   Evaluate an expression and return the value.

"),

("Syntax","Base","evalfile","evalfile(path::String)

   the last one. No other processing (path searching, fetching from
   node 1, etc.) is performed.

"),

("Syntax","Base","esc","esc(e::ANY)

   Only valid in the context of an Expr returned from a macro.
   Prevents the macro hygine pass from turning embedded variables into
   gensym variables. See the *Macros* section of the Metaprogramming
   chapter of the manual for more details and examples.

"),

("Syntax","Base","gensym","gensym([tag])

   Generates a symbol which will not conflict with other variable
   names.

"),

("Syntax","Base","@gensym","@gensym()

   Generates a gensym symbol for a variable. For example, *@gensym x
   y* is transformed into *x = gensym(\"x\"); y = gensym(\"y\")*.

"),

("Syntax","Base","parse","parse(str, [start]; greedy=true, raise=false)

   Parse the expression string and return an expression (which could
   later be passed to eval for execution). Start is the index of the
   first character to start parsing (default is 1). If greedy is true
   (default), parse will try to consume as much input as it can;
   otherwise, it will stop as soon as it has parsed a valid token. If
   raise is true (default), parse errors will raise an error;
   otherwise, parse will return the error as an expression object.

"),

("Iteration","Base","start","start(iter) -> state

   Get initial iteration state for an iterable object

"),

   For a set of iterable objects, returns an iterable of tuples, where
   the \"i\"th tuple contains the \"i\"th component of each input
   iterable.

   [a...]\".

"),

("Iteration","Base","enumerate","enumerate(iter)

   Return an iterator that yields \"(i, x)\" where \"i\" is an index
   starting at 1, and \"x\" is the \"ith\" value from the given
   iterator.

   Remove all elements from a collection.

"),

("General Collections","Base","length","length(collection) -> Integer

   For ordered, indexable collections, the maximum index \"i\" for

   collections, the number of elements.

"),

("General Collections","Base","endof","endof(collection) -> Integer

   Returns the last index of the collection.

   **Example**: \"endof([1,2,4]) = 3\"

"),

("Iterable Collections","Base","in","in(item, collection) -> Bool

   that it is \"isequal\" to one of the values generated by iterating
   over the collection.

"),

("Iterable Collections","Base","eltype","eltype(collection)

   collection \"b\"

"),

   equivalent elements originally appears.

"),

("Iterable Collections","Base","reduce","reduce(op, v0, itr)

   Reduce the given collection with the given operator, i.e.
   accumulate \"v = op(v,elt)\" for each element, where \"v\" starts
   as \"v0\". Reductions for certain commonly-used operators are
   available in a more convenient 1-argument form: \"maximum(itr)\",
   \"minimum(itr)\", \"sum(itr)\", \"prod(itr)\", \"any(itr)\",
   \"all(itr)\".

   The associativity of the reduction is implementation-dependent; if
   you need a particular associativity, e.g. left-to-right, you should
   write your own loop.

   the result using the binary function \"op\".

   **Example**: \"mapreduce(x->x^2, +, [1:3]) == 1 + 4 + 9 == 14\"

   The associativity of the reduction is implementation-dependent; if
   you need a particular associativity, e.g. left-to-right, you should
   write your own loop.

"),

   Get the first element of an iterable collection.

"),

   file, stream or byte array. Memory mapped filed can be used by
   passing the byte array representation of the mapped segment as

   \"writefunc\" to write \"args...\" to a base64-encoded string, and
   returns the string.  \"base64(args...)\" is equivalent to
   \"base64(write, args...)\": it converts its arguments into bytes
   using the standard \"write\" functions and returns the
   base64-encoded string.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","display","display(x)
display(d::Display, x)
display(mime, x)
display(d::Display, mime, x)

   Display \"x\" using the topmost applicable display in the display
   stack, typically using the richest supported multimedia output for
   \"x\", with plain-text \"STDOUT\" output as a fallback.  The
   \"display(d, x)\" variant attempts to display \"x\" on the given
   display \"d\" only, throwing a \"MethodError\" if \"d\" cannot
   display objects of this type.

   There are also two variants with a \"mime\" argument (a MIME type
   string, such as \"\"image/png\"\"), which attempt to display \"x\"
   using the requesed MIME type *only*, throwing a \"MethodError\" if
   this type is not supported by either the display(s) or by \"x\".
   With these variants, one can also supply the \"raw\" data in the
   requested MIME type by passing \"x::String\" (for MIME types with
   text-based storage, such as text/html or application/postscript) or
   \"x::Vector{Uint8}\" (for binary MIME types).

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","redisplay","redisplay(x)
redisplay(d::Display, x)
redisplay(mime, x)
redisplay(d::Display, mime, x)

   By default, the \"redisplay\" functions simply call \"display\".
   However, some display backends may override \"redisplay\" to modify
   an existing display of \"x\" (if any).   Using \"redisplay\" is
   also a hint to the backend that \"x\" may be redisplayed several
   times, and the backend may choose to defer the display until (for
   example) the next interactive prompt.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","displayable","displayable(mime)
displayable(d::Display, mime)

   Returns a boolean value indicating whether the given \"mime\" type
   (string) is displayable by any of the displays in the current
   display stack, or specifically by the display \"d\" in the second
   variant.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","writemime","writemime(stream, mime, x)

   The \"display\" functions ultimately call \"writemime\" in order to
   write an object \"x\" as a given \"mime\" type to a given I/O
   \"stream\" (usually a memory buffer), if possible.  In order to
   provide a rich multimedia representation of a user-defined type
   \"T\", it is only necessary to define a new \"writemime\" method
   for \"T\", via: \"writemime(stream, ::MIME\"mime\", x::T) = ...\",
   where \"mime\" is a MIME-type string and the function body calls
   \"write\" (or similar) to write that representation of \"x\" to
   \"stream\". (Note that the \"MIME\"\"\" notation only supports
   literal strings; to construct \"MIME\" types in a more flexible
   manner use \"MIME{symbol(\"\")}\".)

   For example, if you define a \"MyImage\" type and know how to write
   it to a PNG file, you could define a function \"writemime(stream,
   ::MIME\"image/png\", x::MyImage) = ...`\" to allow your images to
   be displayed on any PNG-capable \"Display\" (such as IJulia). As
   usual, be sure to \"import Base.writemime\" in order to add new
   methods to the built-in Julia function \"writemime\".

   Technically, the \"MIME\"mime\"\" macro defines a singleton type
   for the given \"mime\" string, which allows us to exploit Julia's
   dispatch mechanisms in determining how to display objects of any
   given type.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","mimewritable","mimewritable(mime, x)

   Returns a boolean value indicating whether or not the object \"x\"
   can be written as the given \"mime\" type.  (By default, this is
   determined automatically by the existence of the corresponding
   \"writemime\" function for \"typeof(x)\".)

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","reprmime","reprmime(mime, x)

   Returns a \"String\" or \"Vector{Uint8}\" containing the
   representation of \"x\" in the requested \"mime\" type, as written
   by \"writemime\" (throwing a \"MethodError\" if no appropriate
   \"writemime\" is available).  A \"String\" is returned for MIME
   types with textual representations (such as \"\"text/html\"\" or
   \"\"application/postscript\"\"), whereas binary data is returned as
   \"Vector{Uint8}\".  (The function \"istext(mime)\" returns whether
   or not Julia treats a given \"mime\" type as text.)

   As a special case, if \"x\" is a \"String\" (for textual MIME
   types) or a \"Vector{Uint8}\" (for binary MIME types), the
   \"reprmime\" function assumes that \"x\" is already in the
   requested \"mime\" format and simply returns \"x\".

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","stringmime","stringmime(mime, x)

   Returns a \"String\" containing the representation of \"x\" in the
   requested \"mime\" type.  This is similar to \"reprmime\" except
   that binary data is base64-encoded as an ASCII string.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","pushdisplay","pushdisplay(d::Display)

   Pushes a new display \"d\" on top of the global display-backend
   stack.  Calling \"display(x)\" or \"display(mime, x)\" will display
   \"x\" on the topmost compatible backend in the stack (i.e., the
   topmost backend that does not throw a \"MethodError\").

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","popdisplay","popdisplay()
popdisplay(d::Display)

   Pop the topmost backend off of the display-backend stack, or the
   topmost copy of \"d\" in the second variant.

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","TextDisplay","TextDisplay(stream)

   Returns a \"TextDisplay <: Display\", which can display any object
   as the text/plain MIME type (only), writing the text representation
   to the given I/O stream.  (The text representation is the same as
   the way an object is printed in the Julia REPL.)

"),

("Multimedia I/O","Base","istext","istext(m::MIME)

   Determine whether a MIME type is text data.

"),

("Memory-mapped I/O","Base","mmap_array","mmap_array(type, dims, stream[, offset])

   Create an \"Array\" whose values are linked to a file, using
   memory-mapping. This provides a convenient way of working with data
   too large to fit in the computer's memory.

   The type determines how the bytes of the array are interpreted.
   Note that the file must be stored in binary format, and no format
   conversions are possible (this is a limitation of operating
   systems, not Julia).

   dims is a tuple specifying the size of the array.

   The file is passed via the stream argument.  When you initialize
   the stream, use \"\"r\"\" for a \"read-only\" array, and \"\"w+\"\"
   to create a new array used to write values to disk.

   Optionally, you can specify an offset (in bytes) if, for example,
   you want to skip over a header in the file. The default value for
   the offset is the current stream position.

   **Example**:

      # Create a file for mmapping
      # (you could alternatively use mmap_array to do this step, too)
      A = rand(1:20, 5, 30)
      s = open(\"/tmp/mmap.bin\", \"w+\")
      # We'll write the dimensions of the array as the first two Ints in the file
      write(s, size(A,1))
      write(s, size(A,2))
      # Now write the data
      write(s, A)
      close(s)

      # Test by reading it back in
      s = open(\"/tmp/mmap.bin\")   # default is read-only
      m = read(s, Int)
      n = read(s, Int)
      A2 = mmap_array(Int, (m,n), s)

   This would create a m-by-n \"Matrix{Int}\", linked to the file
   associated with stream \"s\".

   A more portable file would need to encode the word size---32 bit or
   64 bit---and endianness information in the header. In practice,
   consider encoding binary data using standard formats like HDF5
   (which can be used with memory-mapping).

"),

("Memory-mapped I/O","Base","mmap_bitarray","mmap_bitarray([type], dims, stream[, offset])

   Create a \"BitArray\" whose values are linked to a file, using
   memory-mapping; it has the same purpose, works in the same way, and
   has the same arguments, as \"mmap_array()\", but the byte
   representation is different. The \"type\" parameter is optional,
   and must be \"Bool\" if given.

   **Example**:  \"B = mmap_bitarray((25,30000), s)\"

   This would create a 25-by-30000 \"BitArray\", linked to the file
   associated with stream \"s\".

   specifics. The flags argument is not valid on Windows.

   You may not need to call \"msync\", because synchronization is
   performed at intervals automatically by the operating system.

   The \"flags\" argument is a bitwise-or of FFTW planner flags,

("Numerical Integration","Base","quadgk","quadgk(f, a, b, c...; reltol=sqrt(eps), abstol=0, maxevals=10^7, order=7)

   Numerically integrate the function \"f(x)\" from \"a\" to \"b\",
   and optionally over additional intervals \"b\" to \"c\" and so on.
   Keyword options include a relative error tolerance \"reltol\"
   (defaults to \"sqrt(eps)\" in the precision of the endpoints), an
   absolute error tolerance \"abstol\" (defaults to 0), a maximum
   number of function evaluations \"maxevals\" (defaults to \"10^7\"),
   and the \"order\" of the integration rule (defaults to 7).

   Returns a pair \"(I,E)\" of the estimated integral \"I\" and an
   estimated upper bound on the absolute error \"E\".  If \"maxevals\"
   is not exceeded then either \"E <= abstol\" or \"E <=
   reltol*norm(I)\" will hold.  (Note that it is useful to specify a
   positive \"abstol\" in cases where \"norm(I)\" may be zero.)

   The endpoints \"a\" etcetera can also be complex (in which case the
   integral is performed over straight-line segments in the complex
   plane).  If the endpoints are \"BigFloat\", then the integration
   will be performed in \"BigFloat\" precision as well (note: it is
   advisable to increase the integration \"order\" in rough proportion
   to the precision, for smooth integrands).  More generally, the
   precision is set by the precision of the integration endpoints
   (promoted to floating-point types).

   The integrand \"f(x)\" can return any numeric scalar, vector, or
   matrix type, or in fact any type supporting \"+\", \"-\",
   multiplication by real values, and a \"norm\" (i.e., any normed
   vector space).

   The algorithm is an adaptive Gauss-Kronrod integration technique:
   the integral in each interval is estimated using a Kronrod rule
   (\"2*order+1\" points) and the error is estimated using an embedded
   Gauss rule (\"order\" points).   The interval with the largest
   error is then subdivided into two intervals and the process is
   repeated until the desired error tolerance is achieved.

   These quadrature rules work best for smooth functions within each
   interval, so if your function has a known discontinuity or other
   singularity, it is best to subdivide your interval to put the
   singularity at an endpoint.  For example, if \"f\" has a
   discontinuity at \"x=0.7\" and you want to integrate from 0 to 1,
   you should use \"quadgk(f, 0,0.7,1)\" to subdivide the interval at
   the point of discontinuity.  The integrand is never evaluated
   exactly at the endpoints of the intervals, so it is possible to
   integrate functions that diverge at the endpoints as long as the
   singularity is integrable (for example, a \"log(x)\" or
   \"1/sqrt(x)\" singularity).

   For real-valued endpoints, the starting and/or ending points may be
   infinite.  (A coordinate transformation is performed internally to
   map the infinite interval to a finite one.)

   You can specify an algorithm to use via the \"alg\" keyword (see
   Sorting Algorithms for available algorithms). The \"by\" keyword
   lets you provide a function that will be applied to each element
   before comparison; the \"lt\" keyword allows providing a custom
   \"less than\" function; use \"rev=true\" to reverse the sorting
   order. These options are independent and can be used together in
   all possible combinations: if both \"by\" and \"lt\" are specified,

   function; \"rev=true\" reverses whatever ordering specified via the
   \"by\" and \"lt\" keywords.

   the lexicographically first one that puts the input array into
   sorted order – i.e. indices of equal elements appear in ascending
   order. If you choose a non-stable sorting algorithm such as
