How do I unravel a sliced item T[].sliced(...) to an array T[]?
For instance:
import std.experimental.ndslice;
auto slice = new int[12].sliced(3, 4);
int[] x = ??;
Thanks
A slice is just a _view_ on your memory, the easiest way is to
save a reference to your array like this:
```
int[] arr = new int[12];
auto slice = arr.sliced(3, 4);
slice[1, 1] = 42;
arr // [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 42, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
```
For a general case, you should give `byElement` a try:
https://dlang.org/phobos/std_experimental_ndslice_selection.html#byElement
in that case:
import std.array : array;
int[] x = slice.byElement.array;
thanks, now I can go to bed!
