  - ### hashCode

    public static int hashCode(Object[] array)

    Returns a hash code based on the contents of the given array. If the array contains other arrays as its elements, the hash code is based on their identities not their contents. So it is acceptable to invoke this method on an array that contains itself as an element, either directly or indirectly.

  - ### deepHashCode

    public static int deepHashCode(Object[] array)

    Returns a hash code based on the "deep contents" of the given array. If the array contains other arrays as its elements, the hash code is based on their contents not their identities. So it is not acceptable to invoke this method on an array that contains itself as an element, either directly or indirectly.

    For any two arrays `a` and `b`, if `Arrays.deepEquals(a, b)` returns `true`, it means that the return value of `Arrays.deepHashCode(a)` equals `Arrays.deepHashCode(b)`.

    The computation of the value returned by this method is similar to that of the value returned by `List#hashCode()`} invoked on a `List`} containing a sequence of instances representing the elements of array in the same order. The difference is: If an element e of array is itself an array, its hash code is computed by calling the appropriate overloading of `Arrays.hashCode(e)` if e is an array of a primitive type, or by calling `Arrays.deepHashCode(e)` recursively if e is an array of a reference type. The value returned by this method is the same value as the method `Arrays.asList(array).hashCode()`. If the array is `null`, the return value is 0.

    ###### Parameters

    - `array`: the array whose hash code to compute.

    ###### Returns

    the hash code for `array`.

  - ### deepEquals

    public static boolean deepEquals(Object[] array1, Object[] array2)

    Returns `true` if the two given arrays are deeply equal to one another. Unlike the method `equals(Object[] array1, Object[] array2)`, this method is appropriate for use for nested arrays of arbitrary depth.

    Two array references are considered deeply equal if they are both `null`, or if they refer to arrays that have the same length and the elements at each index in the two arrays are equal.

    Two `null` elements `element1` and `element2` are possibly deeply equal if any of the following conditions satisfied:

    `element1` and `element2` are both arrays of object reference types, and `Arrays.deepEquals(element1, element2)` would return `true`.

    `element1` and `element2` are arrays of the same primitive type, and the appropriate overloading of `Arrays.equals(element1, element2)` would return `true`.

    `element1 == element2`

    `element1.equals(element2)` would return `true`.

    Note that this definition permits `null` elements at any depth.

    If either of the given arrays contain themselves as elements, the behavior of this method is uncertain.

    ###### Parameters

    - `array1`: the first `Object` array.

    - `array2`: the second `Object` array.

    ###### Returns

    Returns:
      `true` if both arrays are `null` or if the arrays have the same length and the elements at each index in the two arrays are equal according to `equals()`, `false` otherwise.

  - ### deepToString

    public static String deepToString(Object[] array)

    Creates a "deep" `String` representation of the `Object[]` passed, such that if the array contains other arrays, the `String` representation of those arrays is generated as well.

    If any of the elements are primitive arrays, the generation is delegated to the other `toString` methods in this class. If any element contains a reference to the original array, then it will be represented as `"[...]"`. If an element is an `Object[]`, then its representation is generated by a recursive call to this method. All other elements are converted via the `String#valueOf(Object)` method.

    ###### Parameters

    - `array`: the `Object` array to convert.

    ###### Returns

    the `String` representation of `array`.
