To me, it appears that there are really two (_entirely separate_)
concepts:
A. Supporting the useful concept of variable length (but
otherwise entirely conventional) arrays;
B. Supporting a language feature that acts as a window to an
array, through which that array can be manipulated.
And currently these two concepts are combined.
Suggestion: it would be clearer if the two concepts were
separated:
1. Convert 'int[] VarArr;' so it produces a straightforward
_value-type_ variable array, called 'VarArr';
2. Implement a new concept 'int slice Window;' to produce an
object of type 'int slice', called 'Window'.
'Window' is a 'slice' into an int array, not an array itself
or even a variable.
Opinions?
