        .. deprecated:: 3.0.0
            Deprecated in favor of :func:`zarr.api.asynchronous.create_array`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        store : StoreLike
            The store where the array will be created.
        shape : ShapeLike
            The shape of the array.
        dtype : npt.DTypeLike
            The data type of the array.
        zarr_format : ZarrFormat, optional
            The Zarr format version (default is 3).
        fill_value : Any, optional
            The fill value of the array (default is None).
        attributes : dict[str, JSON], optional
            The attributes of the array (default is None).
        chunk_shape : ChunkCoords, optional
            The shape of the array's chunks
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use `chunks` instead.
            If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
        chunk_key_encoding : ChunkKeyEncodingLike, optional
            A specification of how the chunk keys are represented in storage.
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use `dimension_separator` instead.
            Default is ``("default", "/")``.
        codecs : Sequence of Codecs or dicts, optional
            An iterable of Codec or dict serializations of Codecs. The elements of
            this collection specify the transformation from array values to stored bytes.
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use ``filters`` and ``compressor`` instead.

            If no codecs are provided, default codecs will be used:

            - For numeric arrays, the default is ``BytesCodec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For Unicode strings, the default is ``VLenUTF8Codec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For bytes or objects, the default is ``VLenBytesCodec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.

            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_filters``,
            ``array.v3_default_serializer`` and ``array.v3_default_compressors`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        dimension_names : Iterable[str], optional
            The names of the dimensions (default is None).
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should not use this parameter.
        chunks : ShapeLike, optional
            The shape of the array's chunks.
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``chunk_shape`` instead.
            If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
        dimension_separator : Literal[".", "/"], optional
            The dimension separator (default is ".").
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``chunk_key_encoding`` instead.
        order : Literal["C", "F"], optional
            The memory of the array (default is "C").
            If ``zarr_format`` is 2, this parameter sets the memory order of the array.
            If `zarr_format`` is 3, then this parameter is deprecated, because memory order
            is a runtime parameter for Zarr 3 arrays. The recommended way to specify the memory
            order for Zarr 3 arrays is via the ``config`` parameter, e.g. ``{'config': 'C'}``.
        filters : list[dict[str, JSON]], optional
            Sequence of filters to use to encode chunk data prior to compression.
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``codecs`` instead. If no ``filters``
            are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_filters`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        compressor : dict[str, JSON], optional
            The compressor used to compress the data (default is None).
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``codecs`` instead.

            If no ``compressor`` is provided, a default compressor will be used:

            - For numeric arrays, the default is ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For Unicode strings, the default is ``VLenUTF8Codec``.
            - For bytes or objects, the default is ``VLenBytesCodec``.

            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_compressor`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        overwrite : bool, optional
            Whether to raise an error if the store already exists (default is False).
        data : npt.ArrayLike, optional
            The data to be inserted into the array (default is None).
        config : ArrayConfig or ArrayConfigLike, optional
            Runtime configuration for the array.

        Returns
        -------
        AsyncArray
            The created asynchronous array instance.

            Deprecated in favor of :func:`zarr.create_array`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        store : StoreLike
            The array store that has already been initialized.
        shape : ChunkCoords
            The shape of the array.
        dtype : npt.DTypeLike
            The data type of the array.
        chunk_shape : ChunkCoords, optional
            The shape of the Array's chunks.
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use `chunks` instead.
            If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
        chunk_key_encoding : ChunkKeyEncodingLike, optional
            A specification of how the chunk keys are represented in storage.
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use `dimension_separator` instead.
            Default is ``("default", "/")``.
        codecs : Sequence of Codecs or dicts, optional
            An iterable of Codec or dict serializations of Codecs. The elements of
            this collection specify the transformation from array values to stored bytes.
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should use ``filters`` and ``compressor`` instead.

            If no codecs are provided, default codecs will be used:

            - For numeric arrays, the default is ``BytesCodec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For Unicode strings, the default is ``VLenUTF8Codec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For bytes or objects, the default is ``VLenBytesCodec`` and ``ZstdCodec``.

            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_filters``,
            ``array.v3_default_serializer`` and ``array.v3_default_compressors`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        dimension_names : Iterable[str], optional
            The names of the dimensions (default is None).
            Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should not use this parameter.
        chunks : ChunkCoords, optional
            The shape of the array's chunks.
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``chunk_shape`` instead.
            If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
        dimension_separator : Literal[".", "/"], optional
            The dimension separator (default is ".").
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``chunk_key_encoding`` instead.
        order : Literal["C", "F"], optional
            The memory of the array (default is "C").
            If ``zarr_format`` is 2, this parameter sets the memory order of the array.
            If `zarr_format`` is 3, then this parameter is deprecated, because memory order
            is a runtime parameter for Zarr 3 arrays. The recommended way to specify the memory
            order for Zarr 3 arrays is via the ``config`` parameter, e.g. ``{'order': 'C'}``.
        filters : list[dict[str, JSON]], optional
            Sequence of filters to use to encode chunk data prior to compression.
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``codecs`` instead. If no ``filters``
            are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_filters`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        compressor : dict[str, JSON], optional
            Primary compressor to compress chunk data.
            Zarr format 2 only. Zarr format 3 arrays should use ``codecs`` instead.

            If no ``compressor`` is provided, a default compressor will be used:

            - For numeric arrays, the default is ``ZstdCodec``.
            - For Unicode strings, the default is ``VLenUTF8Codec``.
            - For bytes or objects, the default is ``VLenBytesCodec``.

            These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_compressor`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        overwrite : bool, optional
            Whether to raise an error if the store already exists (default is False).

        Block indexing is a convenience indexing method to work on individual chunks
        with chunk index slicing. It has the same concept as Dask's `Array.blocks`
        indexing.

        Slices are supported. However, only with a step size of one.

        Block index arrays may be multidimensional to index multidimensional arrays.
        For example::

            >>> z.blocks[0, 1:3]
            array([[ 3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8],
                   [13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18],
                   [23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28]])

        Examples
        --------

        Set data for a selection of items::

            >>> z.set_block_selection((1, 0), 1)
            >>> z[...]
            array([[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],

                   [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]])

        For convenience, this functionality is also available via the `blocks` property.
        E.g.::

        StorePath instance. The path attribute is the name of the array to initialize.
    shape : ChunkCoords
        Shape of the array.
    dtype : npt.DTypeLike
        Data type of the array.
    chunks : ChunkCoords, optional
        Chunk shape of the array.
        If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
    shards : ChunkCoords, optional
        Shard shape of the array. The default value of ``None`` results in no sharding at all.
    filters : Iterable[Codec], optional
        Iterable of filters to apply to each chunk of the array, in order, before serializing that
        chunk to bytes.

        For Zarr format 3, a "filter" is a codec that takes an array and returns an array,
        and these values must be instances of ``ArrayArrayCodec``, or dict representations
        of ``ArrayArrayCodec``.
        If no ``filters`` are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_filters``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default filters.

        For Zarr format 2, a "filter" can be any numcodecs codec; you should ensure that the
        the order if your filters is consistent with the behavior of each filter.
        If no ``filters`` are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_filters``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default filters.
    compressors : Iterable[Codec], optional
        List of compressors to apply to the array. Compressors are applied in order, and after any
        filters are applied (if any are specified) and the data is serialized into bytes.

        For Zarr format 3, a "compressor" is a codec that takes a bytestream, and
        returns another bytestream. Multiple compressors my be provided for Zarr format 3.
        If no ``compressors`` are provided, a default set of compressors will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_compressors``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default compressors.

        For Zarr format 2, a "compressor" can be any numcodecs codec. Only a single compressor may
        be provided for Zarr format 2.
        If no ``compressor`` is provided, a default compressor will be used.
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit the default compressor.
    serializer : dict[str, JSON] | ArrayBytesCodec, optional
        Array-to-bytes codec to use for encoding the array data.
        Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays use implicit array-to-bytes conversion.
        If no ``serializer`` is provided, a default serializer will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_serializer``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
    fill_value : Any, optional
        Fill value for the array.
    order : {"C", "F"}, optional
        The memory of the array (default is "C").
        For Zarr format 2, this parameter sets the memory order of the array.
        For Zarr format 3, this parameter is deprecated, because memory order
        is a runtime parameter for Zarr format 3 arrays. The recommended way to specify the memory
        order for Zarr format 3 arrays is via the ``config`` parameter, e.g. ``{'config': 'C'}``.
        If no ``order`` is provided, a default order will be used.
        This default can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.order`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
    zarr_format : {2, 3}, optional
        The zarr format to use when saving.
    attributes : dict, optional
        Attributes for the array.
    chunk_key_encoding : ChunkKeyEncodingLike, optional
        A specification of how the chunk keys are represented in storage.
        For Zarr format 3, the default is ``{"name": "default", "separator": "/"}}``.
        For Zarr format 2, the default is ``{"name": "v2", "separator": "."}}``.
    dimension_names : Iterable[str], optional
        The names of the dimensions (default is None).
        Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should not use this parameter.
    overwrite : bool, default False
        Whether to overwrite an array with the same name in the store, if one exists.

    Returns
    -------
    ArrayV3Metadata | ArrayV2Metadata
        The array metadata document.

    """Create an array.

    Parameters
    ----------
    store : str or Store
        Store or path to directory in file system or name of zip file.
    name : str or None, optional
        The name of the array within the store. If ``name`` is ``None``, the array will be located
        at the root of the store.
    shape : ChunkCoords, optional
        Shape of the array. Can be ``None`` if ``data`` is provided.
    dtype : npt.DTypeLike | None
        Data type of the array. Can be ``None`` if ``data`` is provided.
    data : Array-like data to use for initializing the array. If this parameter is provided, the
        ``shape`` and ``dtype`` parameters must be identical to ``data.shape`` and ``data.dtype``,
        or ``None``.
    chunks : ChunkCoords, optional
        Chunk shape of the array.
        If not specified, default are guessed based on the shape and dtype.
    shards : ChunkCoords, optional
        Shard shape of the array. The default value of ``None`` results in no sharding at all.
    filters : Iterable[Codec], optional
        Iterable of filters to apply to each chunk of the array, in order, before serializing that
        chunk to bytes.

        For Zarr format 3, a "filter" is a codec that takes an array and returns an array,
        and these values must be instances of ``ArrayArrayCodec``, or dict representations
        of ``ArrayArrayCodec``.
        If no ``filters`` are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_filters``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default filters.

        For Zarr format 2, a "filter" can be any numcodecs codec; you should ensure that the
        the order if your filters is consistent with the behavior of each filter.
        If no ``filters`` are provided, a default set of filters will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v2_default_filters``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default filters.
    compressors : Iterable[Codec], optional
        List of compressors to apply to the array. Compressors are applied in order, and after any
        filters are applied (if any are specified) and the data is serialized into bytes.

        For Zarr format 3, a "compressor" is a codec that takes a bytestream, and
        returns another bytestream. Multiple compressors my be provided for Zarr format 3.
        If no ``compressors`` are provided, a default set of compressors will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_compressors``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit default compressors.

        For Zarr format 2, a "compressor" can be any numcodecs codec. Only a single compressor may
        be provided for Zarr format 2.
        If no ``compressor`` is provided, a default compressor will be used.
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
        Use ``None`` to omit the default compressor.
    serializer : dict[str, JSON] | ArrayBytesCodec, optional
        Array-to-bytes codec to use for encoding the array data.
        Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays use implicit array-to-bytes conversion.
        If no ``serializer`` is provided, a default serializer will be used.
        These defaults can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.v3_default_serializer``
        in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
    fill_value : Any, optional
        Fill value for the array.
    order : {"C", "F"}, optional
        The memory of the array (default is "C").
        For Zarr format 2, this parameter sets the memory order of the array.
        For Zarr format 3, this parameter is deprecated, because memory order
        is a runtime parameter for Zarr format 3 arrays. The recommended way to specify the memory
        order for Zarr format 3 arrays is via the ``config`` parameter, e.g. ``{'config': 'C'}``.
        If no ``order`` is provided, a default order will be used.
        This default can be changed by modifying the value of ``array.order`` in :mod:`zarr.core.config`.
    zarr_format : {2, 3}, optional
        The zarr format to use when saving.
    attributes : dict, optional
        Attributes for the array.
    chunk_key_encoding : ChunkKeyEncodingLike, optional
        A specification of how the chunk keys are represented in storage.
        For Zarr format 3, the default is ``{"name": "default", "separator": "/"}}``.
        For Zarr format 2, the default is ``{"name": "v2", "separator": "."}}``.
    dimension_names : Iterable[str], optional
        The names of the dimensions (default is None).
        Zarr format 3 only. Zarr format 2 arrays should not use this parameter.
    storage_options : dict, optional
        If using an fsspec URL to create the store, these will be passed to the backend implementation.
        Ignored otherwise.
    overwrite : bool, default False
        Whether to overwrite an array with the same name in the store, if one exists.
    config : ArrayConfig or ArrayConfigLike, optional
        Runtime configuration for the array.
    write_data : bool
        If a pre-existing array-like object was provided to this function via the ``data`` parameter
        then ``write_data`` determines whether the values in that array-like object should be
        written to the Zarr array created by this function. If ``write_data`` is ``False``, then the
        array will be left empty.
