+/**
+ * $(D_PSYMBOL tanya.range.array) implements range primitives for built-in arrays.
+ *
+ * This module is a submodule of
+ * $(LINK2 https://github.com/caraus-ecms/tanya/blob/master/source/tanya/range/package.d, tanya.range).
+ *
+ * After importing of
+ * $(LINK2 https://github.com/caraus-ecms/tanya/blob/master/source/tanya/range/array.d, tanya/range/array.d)
+ * built-in arrays can act as bidirectional ranges. For that to work the module
+ * defines a set of functions that accept a built-in array of any type as their
+ * first argument, so thanks to UFCS (Uniform Function Call Syntax) they can be
+ * called as if they were array member functions. For example the arrays the
+ * `.length`-property, but no `.empty` property. So here can be find the
+ * $(D_PSYMBOL empty) function. Since $(D_INLINECODE empty(array)) and
+ * $(D_INLINECODE array.empty) are equal for the arrays, arrays get a faked
+ * property `empty`.
+ *
+ * The functions in this module don't change array elements or its underlying
+ * storage, but some functions alter the slice. Each array maintains a pointer
+ * to its data and the length and there can be several pointers which point to
+ * the same data. Array pointer can be advanced and the length can be reduced
+ * without changing the underlying storage. So slices offer the possibility to
+ * have multiple views into the same array, point to different positions inside
+ * it.
+ *
+ * Strings ($(D_INLINECODE char[]), (D_INLINECODE wchar[]) and
+ * (D_INLINECODE dchar[])) are treated as any other normal array, they aren't
+ * auto-decoded.
