<para>
<function>array_pad</function> returns a copy of the
<parameter>input</parameter> padded to size specified by
<parameter>pad_size</parameter> with value
<parameter>pad_value</parameter>. If
<parameter>pad_size</parameter> is positive then the array is
padded on the right, if it's negative then on the left. If the
absolute value of <parameter>pad_size</parameter> is less than or
equal to the length of the <parameter>input</parameter> then no
padding takes place.
It is possible to add most 1048576 elements at a time.
