First is an easy one:
1.) I have a large array and a sub-slice which I want to set up
to be pointing into a sub-range of it. What do I write if I know
the start and end indices ? Concerned about an off-by-one error,
I have start_index and past_end_index (exclusive).
2.) I have a dynamic array and I wish to preinitialise its alloc
cell to be a certain large size so that I don’t need to
reallocate often initially. I tell myself that I can set the
.length property. Is that true?
2a.) And what happens when the cell is extended, is the remainder
zero-filled or remaining full of garbage, or is the size of the
alloc cell something separate from the dynamic array’s knowledge
of the number of valid elements in it ?
