I care about slicing or anything but appending, removal, and
indexing. I
don't even need bounds checking. I don't see a need to get
locked in to
the GC for such simple cases.
One way is to make x() a function template:
import std.stdio;
void x(int y)() {
bool[y] arr;
arr[y/2] = true;
writeln(arr);
}
void main() {
x!5();
}

But the length depends on runtime behavior. Might be 5 or 100.
This doesn't handle it, does it?
I already make a simple malloc based array that does what I want.
Looks like a normal array with ~=, [], foreach. Does what I need
it to do. Only works with BasicTypes of course.
