Array parameters

[Norman Diamond]

In order to pass an array parameter by value (instead of passing a pointer
to it), the array has to be imbedded in a structure and the structure then
passed by value.

I suppose if one wants to pass a structure by reference, it could be made
an array of size 1.  (Of course, one could also use &, but obviously that
would be cheating -- if the use of & could be suggested for structure
references, then it could also be suggested for array references, and the
default could be by value consistently.)
