I think the doc is pretty explainatory.. To further explain it, You can
still use an Array as dataProvider but any changes in the dataprovider
array won't update the control. If you want your control (DataGrid, List
etc.) to reflect the changes then you need to use Collection (There is
an ArrayCollection). 

Example:

<m:DataGrid dataProvider="{ArrayDataProvider}"/> // Won't update the
DataGrid if you change element 1 from a to aa.

<m:DataGrid dataProvider="{ArrayCollectionDataProvider}"/> // Will
update the DataGrid if you change element 1 from a to aa.
