# Due to the fact we're passing arrays via indirection,
# we've got to mangle variable names used within array
# functions to prevent accidentally having a naming
# conflic with an array, for example, an array with the
# "choice" identifier in the input_choice function.
# Eventually, input_choice's "choice" variable will
# be indirectly expanded rather than the choice array.
function array_contains() {

# An efficient way to pass arrays around in bash
# is to perform indirect expansion by using the
# expansion symbol, $, along with the indirection
# symbol, !, in curly braces, ${! }, resulting in:
# function call: array_contains array[@] "text"
# funct params: $1 = "array[@]" $2 = "text"
# indirect exp: ${!1} => ${array[@]} (replaced!)
