For array literals, if the size is present the constructed array has that many
For array literals, if the length is present the constructed array has that many
elements; trailing elements are given the approprate zero value for that type.
If it is absent, the size of the array is the number of elements. It is an error
if a specified size is less than the number of elements in the expression list.
If it is absent, the length of the array is the number of elements. It is an error
if the specified length is less than the number of elements in the expression list.
In either case, the length is known at compile type and thus the type of an
array literal is always a fixed array type.
