Further information
This function returns the type of a given array. The type of an array designates both the type of all entries of the array (as a type code) and the storage class used for that array. The entry's type code can be extracted using the macro XPRM_TYP(type). The storage class can be extracted using the macro XPRM_GRP(type). The macro XPRM_ARR_DENSE can be used to characterize a ``dense table'' ( e.g. XPRM_GRP(type) == XPRM_ARR_DENSE).
