 *
 * These arrays are very specialized and have both advantaes and disadvantages.
 *
 * PTR() guidelines:
 * -----------------
 * PTR() has limited uses.
 * Acceptable uses are inside frequent functions that use PTR() in their own scope.
 * PTR() opens the pitfall of dangling pointers.
 * Never store (or pass to a function that may store) what PTR() returns.
 * Be sure that what PTR() returned isn't still used after its object was destroyed.
 *
 * Coding notes:
 * -------------
 * if ( a > b )        // problem is that operator>() is rarely defined
 * if ( not (a < b) )  // WRONG: that's >=
 * if ( b < a )        // right: swapping operands of < is equivalent to >
