And don't forget:
   S (A .. B) := (others => 0);

Enough with loop and loops at the lowest level! Thanks to slices, you
can really manipulate arrays as high level objects, without always going
down inside!

Now, I am sure someone will tell: "but that doesn't go as far as
multidimensional arrays...". True. Look at the syntax for Fortran
slices, and you'll see that the cure would be worth than the disease.
