Array to slice?

Help & Support
1

Is there a way to “cast” or “convert” an Array to a Slice? Like a canonical way?

Just wondering for some unit tests I’m working on for the stdlib where I want to do

(1..17).to_a.to_slice

Why do you need this?

So I could new up a Slice[1,2,3,4,5...17] for unit tests for the Slice class.
I did find a constructor that seems to work :)

def to_slice(arr)
  Slice.new(arr.size) {|i| arr[i]}
end
