{{alias}}( dtype, buffer, shape, strides, offset, order )
    Returns an ndarray.

    Parameters
    ----------
    dtype: string
        Underlying data type.

    buffer: ArrayLikeObject|TypedArray|Buffer
        Data buffer.

    shape: ArrayLikeObject
        Array shape.

    strides: ArrayLikeObject
        Array strides.

    offset: integer
        Index offset.

    order: string
        Specifies whether an array is row-major (C-style) or column-major
        (Fortran-style).

    Returns
    -------
    ndarray.prototype.byteLength: integer
        Size (in bytes) of the array (if known).

    ndarray.prototype.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT: integer
        Size (in bytes) of each array element (if known).

    ndarray.prototype.data: ArrayLikeObject|TypedArray|Buffer
        Pointer to the underlying data buffer.

    ndarray.prototype.dtype: string
        Underlying data type.

    ndarray.prototype.flags: Object
        Information about the memory layout of the array.

    ndarray.prototype.length: integer
        Length of the array (i.e., number of elements).

    ndarray.prototype.ndims: integer
        Number of dimensions.

    ndarray.prototype.offset: integer
        Index offset which specifies the buffer index at which to start
        iterating over array elements.

    ndarray.prototype.order: string
        Array order. The array order is either row-major (C-style) or column-
        major (Fortran-style).

    ndarray.prototype.shape: Array
        Array shape.

    ndarray.prototype.strides: Array
        Index strides which specify how to access data along corresponding array
        dimensions.

    ndarray.prototype.get: Function
        Returns an array element specified according to provided subscripts. The
        number of provided subscripts should equal the number of dimensions.

    ndarray.prototype.iget: Function
        Returns an array element located at a specified linear index.

    ndarray.prototype.set: Function
        Sets an array element specified according to provided subscripts. The
        number of provided subscripts should equal the number of dimensions.

    ndarray.prototype.iset: Function
        Sets an array element located at a specified linear index.

    ndarray.prototype.toString: Function
        Serializes an ndarray as a string. This method does **not** serialize
        data outside of the buffer region defined by the array configuration.

    ndarray.prototype.toJSON: Function
        Serializes an ndarray as a JSON object. This method does **not**
        serialize data outside of the buffer region defined by the array
        configuration.

    Examples
    --------
    // Create a new instance...
    > var b = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]; // underlying data buffer
    > var d = [ 2, 2 ]; // shape
    > var s = [ 2, 1 ]; // strides
    > var o = 0; // index offset
    > var arr = {{alias}}( 'generic', b, d, s, o, 'row-major' )
    <ndarray>

    // Get an element using subscripts:
    > var v = arr.get( 1, 1 )
    4

    // Get an element using a linear index:
    > v = arr.iget( 3 )
    4

    // Set an element using subscripts:
    > arr.set( 1, 1, 40 );
    > arr.get( 1, 1 )
    40

    // Set an element using a linear index:
    > arr.iset( 3, 99 );
    > arr.get( 1, 1 )
    99
