```
$array = array(

	'this' => array(
		'is' => 'an',
		'example'
	),

	'we use a' => 'normal array',

$arrayer->set('we.use.dot.notation', array('so', 'cool.'));

$arrayer->set('this.is', 'we gonna delete this very soon...');
$arrayer->delete('this.is');

$arrayer->set('more.examples', 'test');
$arrayer->get('more.examples'); // returns 'test'

$arrayer->getArray(); // returns the modified array
