2025-11-28interpreter: Add a slice() method to arraysJouke Witteveen
This can come in handy for instance when a custom target creates both headers and sources. Slicing the output of a `to_list()` call provides convenient access to just the headers or just the sources.
2025-07-22Docs: standardize between list and array as arrayDylan Baker
When arrays were added they were called arrays. Because the are implemented with Python lists, that language started leaking into talking about Meson types. This is confusing. I've attempted, as much as possible, to move to using one name, array. I picked array because 1) It's the original name used, and 2) what Meson has are more properly arrays as they have a fixed length, while a critical property of lists are the ability to link and unlink them. There are a couple of places where the list language has leaked into the names of keyword arguments. I have not made any attempt to change those, I don't know if it's that useful or not.
