Comments

In the first variant, the operator store the object ElementAny at index IndexInt within the array
AnyArray. Array indexes range from zero to N-1, where N is the number of elements in the array.

In the second variant, the operator stores the key object KeyAny and the value object ValueAny as
a key + value pair into the dictionary AnyDict. If AnyDict already contains a key + value pair with
a matching key object, put replaces the entry's associated value object with ValueAny.

In the third variant, the operator stores the ASCII character with the value CharInt within the
string AnyStr at the index IndexInt. String character indexes range from zero to N-1, where N is
the number of characters in the string.
