    //  Expected output is:  {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}

    //  Note: The contents of the array were copied.
    //  If we modify the contents of jarr, it does not modify the array contained within "json" because it is a separate copy.
    //  For example:
    CkJsonArrayW_AddIntAt(jarr,-1,2020);
    wprintf(L"%s\n",CkJsonArrayW_emit(jarr));
    //  Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"},2020]

    wprintf(L"%s\n",CkJsonObjectW_emit(json));
    //  Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}
