Maximum-length
Return the :maximum-length from the header of an array
Example Form:
(maximum-length 'delta1 a)
General Form:
(maximum-length name alist)
where name is an arbitrary object and alist is a 1- or
2-dimensional array. This function returns the contents of the
:maximum-length field of the header of alist. Whenever an
aset1 or aset2 would cause the length of the alist to exceed
its maximum length, a compress1 or compress2 is done
automatically to remove irrelevant pairs from the array. Maximum-length
operates in virtually constant time if alist is the semantic value of
name. See arrays.
