     Returns a mixed array with the query result entries, optionally
     limited to a maximum of <parameter>max_rows</parameter> rows.
     Note that both row and column indexes are zero-based.

          <parameter>max_rows</parameter>, &false;
          otherwise. Note that even when this is
          &true;, the next
          <function>sesam_fetch_result</function> call may return zero
          rows because there are no more result entries.

        <row>
         <entry>mixed $arr[col][row]</entry>

          result data for all the fields at
          row(<literal>row</literal>) and
          column(<literal>col</literal>), (where the integer index
          <literal>row</literal> is between 0 and
          <literal>$arr["rows"]-1</literal>, and
          <literal>col</literal> is between 0 and
          <literal>$arr["count"]-1</literal>). Fields may be empty, so
          you must check for the existence of a field by using the php
          <function>isset</function> function. The type of the
          returned fields depend on the respective SQL type declared
          for its column (see <link linkend="ref.sesam">SESAM
          overview</link> for the conversions applied). SESAM
          "multiple fields" are "inlined" and treated like a sequence
          of columns.

       </tbody>
      </tgroup>
     </table>
     Note that the amount of memory used up by a large query may be
     gigantic. Use the <parameter>max_rows</parameter> parameter to
     limit the maximum number of rows returned, unless you are
     absolutely sure that your result will not use up all available
     memory.
    </para>
    <para>
     See also: <function>sesam_fetch_row</function>, and
     <function>sesam_field_array</function> to check for "multiple
     fields". See the description of the
     <function>sesam_query</function> function for a complete example
     using <function>sesam_fetch_result</function>.
