ak.parameters(array)

Extracts parameters from the outermost array node of `array` (many types supported, including all Awkward Arrays and Records).

Parameters are a dict from str to JSON-like objects, usually strings. Every `ak.layout.Content` node has a different set of parameters. Some key names are special, such as `"__record__"` and `"__array__"` that name particular records and arrays as capable of supporting special behaviors.

See `ak.Array` and `ak.behavior` for a more complete description of behaviors.
