Defines an arrangement of material in rows and columns that is not a true table but merely a small block of one or more rows and columns in the flow of the narrative, typically presented as a block with space before it and after it.
APA's preference is to use <array> together with <tbody> when the tabular content is very simple and can be fully represented by <tbody> alone. If the tabular content requires the use of additional <table> table elements, <array> should be used in conjunction with <alternatives>, which should contain a <graphic> as well as the <table> tagging.
(((alternatives | graphic)* | tbody))
A very simple tabular structure
...
<p align="left">... Many studies of conditional reasoning
examine the inferences that reasoners make from conditionals,
for example:
<array xml:lang="en">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="left" colspan="1" rowspan="1">If there was water
on Mars then the planet was capable of sustaining life.</td>
<td align="left" colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="middle">(1)</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</array>
</p>
...
A more complex tabular structure for which a graphic is needed in addition to the table tagging
