a 
An array
Further information
1. Only cells of arrays explicitly declared dynamic can be deleted. This function has no effect with other types of array.
2. Deleting a cell of an array of referenced objects (like mpvar) may not effectively release that object. Actually, a referenced object is released only when all its references have been removed. For instance, if an object appears in a set, deleting its main reference using delcell will not remove this object from the set.
