    // Get the value at each array index. 
    // Output will be:
    // [0] = home
    // [0] as integer = 0
    // [1] = 22
    // [1] as integer = 22
    // [2] = green
    // [2] as integer = 0

    var arraySize: Int = tagsArray!.size.intValue
    var i: Int
    for i = 0; i <= arraySize - 1; i++ {

        var sValue: String? = tagsArray!.string(at: i)

        print("[\(i)] = \(sValue!)")

        var iValue: Int = tagsArray!.int(at: i).intValue
        print("[\(i)] as integer = \(iValue)")

    }

    tagsArray = nil

    // Note: The StringAt method returns the value as a string regardless of the type.

    // The IntAt method returns the value as an integer.  If the value does not convert to 
    // an integer, then 0 is returned
