.. py:function:: ak.is_valid(array, *, exception=False)

   Returns True if the array has no structural errors and False otherwise.

   Checks for errors in the structure of the array, such as indexes that run
   beyond the length of a node's ``content``, etc. Either an error is raised or
   the function returns a boolean.

   See also :py:obj:`ak.validity_error`.

   :param array: Array-like data (anything :py:obj:`ak.to_layout` recognizes).
   :param exception: If True, validity errors raise exceptions.
   :type exception: bool

   :returns: True if ``array`` has no structural errors, False otherwise.
