  // Loading into a new JSON array is simple and straightforward.
  final a = CkJsonArray();
  a.load('[ 1,2,3,4 ]');

  // Output:  [1,2,3,4]
  print(a.emit());
  print('--------');

  // The JsonArray's Load and LoadSb methods have a peculiar behavior when
  // it is already part of a JSON document.  In this case, the JsonArray
  // becomes detached, and the original document remains unchanged.
  // This is intentional due to the nature of the internal implementation.
  // For example:

  final json = CkJsonObject();
  json.load('{ "abc": [ 1,2,3,4 ] }');

  // Output:  (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
  print('(json) ${json.emit()}');
  print('--------');

  final abc = json.arrayOf('abc');
  // When Load is called, abc becomes it's own document, and the original is not modified.
  abc.load('[ 5,6,7,8 ]');

  // Output: (abc) [5,6,7,8]
  print('(abc) ${abc.emit()}');
  print('--------');

  // Output: (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
  print('(json) ${json.emit()}');
  print('--------');
