Add (no removal) generic array builtins such as :

bytes = array[of byte](128)
dataBytes = array[of byte](some_byte_enumerable)

m = matrix[of float](4, 4)

Advantages:

• more readable syntax (imho at least) than: array(Type, count)
• no casts
• much faster implementation possible when building an array with a T* or a collection.
