Nice, when you know the length at compile time, which is rarely from my experience.

The holy grail is runtime access to the length, which means an array would have to be backed by something more elaborate.



Oh, it also work for runtime length:

Now try that on a compiler without -fsanitize=bounds, yet full ISO C compliant.


You can still access the size which is what the parent was asking for. And please tell me how you would try this on an ISO compliant compiler for D.


D has bounds checking, and isn't a ISO language.
