    * Updating the %getString function.
    
    Description:
    Originally, the function would only return a string for scalar values,
    and the developer was responsible for selecting the correct %getString*
    subroutine depending on the parameter type being converted, whether a
    scalar, 1-D, 2-D, or 3-D array.
    
    This change allows the developer to use the scalar %getString function
    for any dimension of parameter.
    
    * Adding unit tests for the updated %getString routine.
    
    * Prune the ending ',' when writing the arrays.
    
    * Replacing integer writes with calls to function str(integer).
    
    * Changing the default delimiter to be ;.  Updating tests.
    
    * Addressing Yuxuan's comments.
    
    Description:
    Removing commented out code.
    Adding subroutine descriptions.
    Removing optional delim argument.
    Updating comments and replacing getSubstring with %substr()

    * Changing the delimeter from ";" to surrounding '"'s
    
    Description:
    This change is primarily for better interoperability with the getField()
    subroutine.  In this manner, each entry from a multi-dimensional array
    is added to the scalar string as a separate field.
