I'm not sure zip is used enough to add it to the language but since they are also using it for tracking the index maybe that is the primary use case.

  The example of using SoA memory layout is not there just as a random example. We hope for Zig developers to employ DOD principles whenever appropriate, which is not going to be that rare in a low-level programming language like Zig. Andrew has a full talk about how the Zig compiler benefits tremendously from DOD: https://vimeo.com/649009599?embedded=true&source=video_title&owner=45836359 https://vimeo.com/649009599?embedded=true&source=video_title...

    Honestly working with them in a column oriented way makes a lot of sense. I wonder though if that should just be handled at the struct level? i.e. ask for row vs column layout.

      How would it work with userspace memory allocators?
