Thanks. I didn't know about this library. Interesting, but perhaps I am missing something... about stack "allocation": var i0 = $(Int, 5); vs int i0[5];

Thanks. I didn't know about this library. Interesting, but perhaps I am missing something... about stack "allocation": var i0 = $(Int, 5); vs int i0[5]; In both cases it doesn't need GC. What would be the reasons for redefining it? I wonder how it couples with local static variables.
