When to use

Use to create a distinct array reference for an existing array, for example before mutating the returned array.

Details

The return type preserves NonEmptyArray. Use this when you need a distinct reference, for example before mutating the returned array.

Example (Copying an array)

const original = [1, 2, 3]
const copied = Array.copy(original)
console.log(copied) // [1, 2, 3]
console.log(original === copied) // false
