    Extension array for string data.

    .. warning::

       StringArray is considered experimental. The implementation and
       parts of the API may change without warning.

    Parameters
    ----------
    values : array-like
        The array of data.

        .. warning::

           Currently, this expects an object-dtype ndarray
           where the elements are Python strings
           or nan-likes (``None``, ``np.nan``, ``NA``).
           This may change without warning in the future. Use
           :meth:`pandas.array` with ``dtype="string"`` for a stable way of
           creating a `StringArray` from any sequence.

           StringArray accepts array-likes containing
           nan-likes(``None``, ``np.nan``) for the ``values`` parameter
           in addition to strings and :attr:`pandas.NA`

    dtype : StringDtype
        Dtype for the array.
    copy : bool, default False
        Whether to copy the array of data.

    Attributes
    ----------
    None

    Methods
    -------
    None

    See Also
    --------
    :func:`array`
        The recommended function for creating a StringArray.
    Series.str
        The string methods are available on Series backed by
        a StringArray.

    Notes
    -----
    StringArray returns a BooleanArray for comparison methods.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> pd.array(["This is", "some text", None, "data."], dtype="string")
    <ArrowStringArray>
    ['This is', 'some text', <NA>, 'data.']
    Length: 4, dtype: string

    Unlike arrays instantiated with ``dtype="object"``, ``StringArray``
    will convert the values to strings.

    >>> pd.array(["1", 1], dtype="object")
    <NumpyExtensionArray>
    ['1', 1]
    Length: 2, dtype: object
    >>> pd.array(["1", 1], dtype="string")
    <ArrowStringArray>
    ['1', '1']
    Length: 2, dtype: string

    However, instantiating StringArrays directly with non-strings will raise an error.

    For comparison methods, `StringArray` returns a :class:`pandas.BooleanArray`:

    >>> pd.array(["a", None, "c"], dtype="string[python]") == "a"
    <BooleanArray>
    [True, <NA>, False]
    Length: 3, dtype: boolean

        Find indices where elements should be inserted to maintain order.

        Find the indices into a sorted array `self` (a) such that, if the
        corresponding elements in `value` were inserted before the indices,
        the order of `self` would be preserved.

        Assuming that `self` is sorted:

        ======  ================================
        `side`  returned index `i` satisfies
        ======  ================================
        left    ``self[i-1] < value <= self[i]``
        right   ``self[i-1] <= value < self[i]``
        ======  ================================

        Parameters
        ----------
        value : array-like, list or scalar
            Value(s) to insert into `self`.
        side : {'left', 'right'}, optional
            If 'left', the index of the first suitable location found is given.
            If 'right', return the last such index.  If there is no suitable
            index, return either 0 or N (where N is the length of `self`).
        sorter : 1-D array-like, optional
            Optional array of integer indices that sort array a into ascending
            order. They are typically the result of argsort.

        Returns
        -------
        array of ints or int
            If value is array-like, array of insertion points.
            If value is scalar, a single integer.
