If the section's starting position is outside of the adapter bounds, the position must be clipped to fall within the size of the adapter.

Given a position within the adapter, returns the index of the corresponding section within the array of section objects.
If the section index is outside of the section array bounds, the index must be clipped to fall within the size of the section array.
For example, consider an indexer where the section at array index 0 starts at adapter position 100. Calling this method with position 10, which is before the first section, must return index 0.

Returns an array of objects representing sections of the list. The returned array and its contents should be non-null.
The list view will call toString() on the objects to get the preview text to display while scrolling. For example, an adapter may return an array of Strings representing letters of the alphabet. Or, it may return an array of objects whose toString() methods return their section titles.
