 On the other hand, ``h(x)`` successfully modifies ``x`` because only
 a reference and not a copy is passed.
 
-Sometimes, when I try to change the length of an array with ex: ``arrayname.length = 7;`` I get a compiler error ``Value must be an lvalue``. Why?

-You can resize a dynamic array in storage (i.e. an array declared at the
-contract level) with ``arrayname.length = <some new length>;``. If you get the
-"lvalue" error, you are probably doing one of two things wrong.
-
-1. You might be trying to resize an array in "memory", or
-
-2. You might be trying to resize a non-dynamic array.

-**Important note:** In Solidity, array dimensions are declared backwards from the way you
-might be used to declaring them in C or Java, but they are access as in
-C or Java.
-
-For example, ``int8[][5] somearray;`` are 5 dynamic ``int8`` arrays.
-
-The reason for this is that ``T[5]`` is always an array of 5 ``T``'s,
-no matter whether ``T`` itself is an array or not (this is not the
-case in C or Java).
-
 Is it possible to return an array of strings (``string[]``) from a Solidity function?

     For dynamically-sized arrays (only available for storage), this member can be assigned to resize the array.
     Accessing elements outside the current length does not automatically resize the array and instead causes a failing assertion.
     Increasing the length adds new zero-initialised elements to the array.
-    Reducing the length performs an implicit :ref:``delete`` on each of the removed elements.

 **push**:
      Dynamic storage arrays and ``bytes`` (not ``string``) have a member function called ``push`` that you can use to append an element at the end of the array. The element will be zero-initialised. The function returns the new length.
