In D arrays are fat pointer instead:

my_array is actually a pair ptr+length.

my_static_array will not be a fat pointer. Length is known at
compile time. Address is known at link/load time so it's also
not a pointer but just a normal variable (& will give you a
pointer to the array data).
my_dynamic_array will be a pair for ptr+length.

What if you pass a static array to a function that expects a
dynamic array. Will D automatically create a dynamic array from
the static array?
