Multi-dimensional arrays present a challenge to developers that need to reference elements of the arrays, which is the fact that you need a variable number of indexes to reference an element depending on its depth.

This class provide a solution to this problem by allowing to reference and manipulate an element by using a single string that comprises all the indexes of the element.

Detailed description

This class can be used to access multi-dimensional array entries with a single string entry key.

It allows to reference elements of an array an arbitrary depth using a single string that represents the element array indexes separated with commas.

The class can take an element index string and set or get its value, check if the element is set, or check it is empty or return the count of entries if the element is an array.
