#' HypeMultiVar arrays
#' 
#' Constructor function for arrays which hold equidistant time series of multiple HYPE variables for a single sub-basin and 
#' multiple model runs, typically imported HYPE basin output results.
#' 
#' @param x numeric \code{\link{array}} with three dimensions, which holds HYPE results for one sub-basin as (in order)
#' \code{[datetime, variable, iteration]}.
#' @param datetime \code{\link{POSIXct}} date-time vector of the same length as \code{time} dimension of \code{x} 
#' with equidistant time steps (starting day for time steps from weekly to annual), or character string for full model 
#' period averages, e.g. \code{"2000-2010"}.
#' @param hype.var,hype.unit Character vectors of keywords to specify HYPE variable IDs, corresponding to second dimension 
#' (columns) in \code{x}. See 
#' \href{http://hype.smhi.net//wiki/doku.php?id=start:hype_file_reference:info.txt:variables}{list of HYPE variables}
#' @param subid Integer, HYPE sub-basin ID. Either this or \code{outregid} needs to be supplied.
#' @param outregid Integer, HYPE output region ID, alternative to \code{subid}.
#' @param hype.comment Character, first-row optional comment string of basin output file. Empty string, if non-existing.
#' 
#' @details
#' S3 class constructor function for array objects which can hold (multiple) HYPE basin output results. 
#' 
#' @return
#' Returns a 3-dimensional array with 
#' \code{[time, variable, iteration]} dimensions and additional \code{\link{attributes}}:
#' \describe{
#' \item{\strong{datetime}}{A vector of date-times. Corresponds to 1st array dimension.}
#' \item{\strong{variable}}{A character vector of HYPE output variable IDs.}
#' \item{\strong{hypeunit}}{A character vector of HYPE output variable units.}
#' \item{\strong{subid}}{A single SUBID.}
#' \item{\strong{outregid}}{A single OUTREGID.}
#' \item{\strong{timestep}}{A character keyword for the time step.}
#' \item{\strong{comment}}{A comment string, currently used for class group outputs.}
#' }
