Array initialization Bug or Expected?

[DavidWhit]

Windows 7
Elm REPL 0.18

someArray = Array.empty
Array.push someNewVal someArray -- REPL shows pushed
Array.push someNewVal someArray -- same
Array.length someArray  = 0 

hmm ok; but then

someArray = Array.push someNewVal  Array.empty
Array.push someNewVal someArray -- shows pushed
Array.length somArray = 1 not 2?

For the above

Thanks, Dave

Thanks for the issue! Make sure it satisfies this checklist. My human colleagues will appreciate it!

Here is what to expect next, and if anyone wants to comment, keep these things in mind.

Expected. Elm is a functional language. Values (like someArray) are immutable.

Lists are not any more or less manipulable than arrays in Elm. In your example, the length of tasks is still 2 after the append call.
