#' @title ChunkedArray class
#' @usage NULL
#' @format NULL
#' @docType class
#' @description A `ChunkedArray` is a data structure managing a list of
#' primitive Arrow [Arrays][Array] logically as one large array. Chunked arrays
#' may be grouped together in a [Table].
#' @section Factory:
#' The `ChunkedArray$create()` factory method instantiates the object from
#' various Arrays or R vectors. `chunked_array()` is an alias for it.
#'
#' @section Methods:
#'
#' - `$length()`: Size in the number of elements this array contains
#' - `$chunk(i)`: Extract an `Array` chunk by integer position
#' - `$as_vector()`: convert to an R vector
#' - `$Slice(offset, length = NULL)`: Construct a zero-copy slice of the array
#'    with the indicated offset and length. If length is `NULL`, the slice goes
#'    until the end of the array.
#' - `$Take(i)`: return a `ChunkedArray` with values at positions given by
#'    integers `i`. If `i` is an Arrow `Array` or `ChunkedArray`, it will be
#'    coerced to an R vector before taking.
#' - `$Filter(i, keep_na = TRUE)`: return a `ChunkedArray` with values at positions where
#'    logical vector or Arrow boolean-type `(Chunked)Array` `i` is `TRUE`.
#' - `$SortIndices(descending = FALSE)`: return an `Array` of integer positions that can be
#'    used to rearrange the `ChunkedArray` in ascending or descending order
#' - `$cast(target_type, safe = TRUE, options = cast_options(safe))`: Alter the
#'    data in the array to change its type.
#' - `$null_count`: The number of null entries in the array
#' - `$chunks`: return a list of `Array`s
#' - `$num_chunks`: integer number of chunks in the `ChunkedArray`
#' - `$type`: logical type of data
#' - `$View(type)`: Construct a zero-copy view of this `ChunkedArray` with the
#'    given type.
#' - `$Validate()`: Perform any validation checks to determine obvious inconsistencies
#'    within the array's internal data. This can be an expensive check, potentially `O(length)`

#' # When taking a Slice from a chunked_array, chunks are preserved
