Add a row with array data:

var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetNew();
var rowData = [ "John", "Sales", 75000 ];
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, rowData );
println( "Row added to spreadsheet" );
```

Add a row to the end:

```js
// Append rows to existing spreadsheet
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetRead( "/path/to/file.xlsx" );
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, [ "Alice", "Marketing", 65000 ] );
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, [ "Bob", "IT", 80000 ] );
```

Insert a row at a specific position:

```js
// Insert a row without overwriting
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetNew();
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, [ "Header1", "Header2", "Header3" ] );
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, [ "Data1", "Data2", "Data3" ] );

// Insert a new row at position 2 (shifts existing rows down)
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, [ "New", "Row", "Data" ], row = 2, insert = true );
```

Add comma-delimited data:

```js
// Add row using comma-delimited string
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetNew();
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, "John,Doe,john@example.com" );
SpreadsheetAddRow( spreadsheet, "Jane,Smith,jane@example.com" );
```
