`sort` returns a SortedRange of ushorts, not an array of

```
import std.array : array;
return sort(numbers.take(8)).array;

That's it!
Thanks Ryan.
You can also return a lazy range:
```
auto draw8Numbers()
{
import std.meta : aliasSeqOf;
import std.range : iota, take;
ushort[] numbers = [ aliasSeqOf!(iota(1,46)) ];
import std.random : randomShuffle;
randomShuffle(numbers);
import std.algorithm.sorting : sort;
return sort(numbers[].take(8));
}
void main()
{
import std.array;
ushort[] nbrs = draw8Numbers.array; // evaluated after
return, during assingment
}
```
