Description
**Godot version:**
Godot 4.2.2, Documentation referred to stable(4.2)
**Issue description:**
Following the ArrayMesh tutorial and explanation, in the first "full" code example, the last line explains how to create the mesh with all the data we settled up:
```
# Create mesh surface from mesh array.
# No blendshapes, lods, or compression used.
mesh.add_surface_from_arrays(Mesh.PRIMITIVE_TRIANGLES, surface_array)
```
"mesh" isn't declared anywhere in the code example, making it hard for a new user to identify where to find the function and what "mesh" actually is.
I'd suggest adding the declaration for "mesh", making it straightforward what it is.
I guess the solution should be to add "var mesh=ArrayMesh.new()", making the example code clearer.
