In the DESCRIPTION section, the following sentence is difficult to understand, and may be gramatically incorrect. 
"Since an array's size length grow or shrink at any time, JavaScript arrays are not guaranteed to be dense."

I suggest the following possible alternative:

"Density is never certain since Javascript arrays may increase or decrease programatically, that is, depending on how they are designed by the programmer." 

I'm not sure that "dense" or (as in my example) "density" is the most appropriate word; despite how much I like it: https://youtu.be/s7A5xLk3hIs
I agree; this wording was poor (and clearly some cutting was done at some point leaving bits behind, I think). I've rewritten much of this paragraph and it should be much clearer now.
