Name:

    Most - Remove the last element of an array or string and return the rest.

Synopsis:

    string Most -> string
      array Most -> array

Examples:

    (computer) Most -> (compute)
      [1 2 3] Most -> [1 2]
      [(this) (is) (an) (example)] Rest -> [(this) (is) (an)]

Remarks:

      In 2003 this function did not exist in Mathematica and was
