Actually, on reflection, I'd have to say that there's not much point to that.
If
you really want to copy on array to another (rather than a range), just use the
array copy syntax:
void main()
{
auto i = [1, 2, 3, 4];
auto j = [3, 4, 5, 6];
assert(i == [1, 2, 3, 4]);
assert(j == [3, 4, 5, 6]);
i[] = j[];
assert(i == [3, 4, 5, 6]);
assert(j == [3, 4, 5, 6]);
}
copy is of benefit, because it works on generic ranges, not for copying arrays
(arrays already allow you to do that quite nicely), so if all you're looking at
copying is arrays, then just use the array copy syntax.
