 `"${#xs[@]}"` doesn't work with `nounset` if `xs` wasn't defined, i.e. was
 declared with either of
 
-    local -a xs
-    declare -a xs
-    local -A xs
-    declare -A xs
+```bash
+local -a xs
+declare -a xs
+local -A xs
+declare -A xs
+```
 
 Therefore, if you want to extract the length of an array, append `=()` to the
 statements above.
 
-    local -a xs=()
-    declare -a xs=()
-    ...
+```bash
+local -a xs=()
+declare -a xs=()
+```
 
 And now `"${#xs[@]}"` works with `nounset`.
 It doesn't affect expansion (see below) though.
