SPVM::Arrays - Array Utility
sub copy_of_byte($original : byte[], $new_length : int) : byte[];
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain (byte)0. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
Parameters:
$original - the array to be copied
$new_length - the length of the copy to be returned
Returns:
a copy of the original array, truncated or padded with zeros to obtain the specified length
Throws:
if $new_length is negative
if $original is null
sub copyOf($original : short[], $new_length : int) : short[]
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain (short)0. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
if newLength is negative if original is null
sub copyOf($original : int[], $new_length : int) : int[]
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain 0. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
if newLength is negative
if original is null
sub copyOf($original : long[], $new_length : int) : long[]
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain 0L. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
sub copy_of_float($original : float[], $new_length : int) : float[]
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain 0f. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
sub copy_of_double($original : double[], $new_length : int) : double[]
Copies the specified array, truncating or padding with zeros (if necessary) so the copy has the specified length. For all indices that are valid in both the original array and the copy, the two arrays will contain identical values. For any indices that are valid in the copy but not the original, the copy will contain 0d. Such indices will exist if and only if the specified length is greater than that of the original array.
