 To create an array you can either use the object constructor or the literal declaration,

 <javascript caption="A simple array">
 var myArray1 = new Array( 'hello', 'world' ); // with constructor
-var myArray2 = [ 'hello', 'world' ]; // literal declaration, the prefered way

 If you don't know your values yet, it is also possible to declare an empty Array, and
 add elements either through functions or through accessing by index:
 
 <javascript caption="Creating empty arrays and adding values">
-var myArray = []; // var myArray = new Array(); would also work
+var myArray = [];
 
 myArray.push('hello'); // adds 'hello' on index 0
 myArray.push('world'); // adds 'world' on index 1
