  - ### fill

    public static <T, E extends Throwable> T[] fill(T[] array, FailableIntFunction<? extends T,E> generator) throws E
    Fills and returns the given array, using the provided generator supplier to compute each element. Like `Arrays.setAll(Object[], IntFunction)` with exception support.

    If the generator supplier throws an exception, it is relayed to the caller and the array is left in an indeterminate state.

    Type Parameters:
      `T` - type of elements of the array.
      `E` - The kind of thrown exception or error.
    Parameters:
      `array` - array to be initialized.
      `generator` - a function accepting an index and producing the desired value for that position.
    Returns:
      the input array
    Throws:
      `E` - Thrown by the given `generator`.

    Type Parameters:
      `T` - the array type.
    Parameters:
      `a` - the array to be filled (may be null).
      `val` - the value to be stored in all elements of the array.
