  • A - indicates a change occurred within an array
• path - the property path (from the left-hand-side root)
• lhs - the value on the left-hand-side of the comparison (undefined if kind == 'N')
• rhs - the value on the right-hand-side of the comparison (undefined if kind == 'D')
• index - when kind == 'A', indicates the array index where the change occurred
• item - when kind == 'A', contains a nested change record indicating the change that occurred at the array index
