The docs for newArray# states:

"Create a new mutable array of specified size (in bytes), in the specified state thread, with each element containing the specified initial value."

The docs are wrong.

I'm trying to implement the following array type:

data MurableArray s a = Array { unArray :: !(MutableArray# s a) }

Have a look at the implementation of http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/primitive/0.3.1/doc/html/Data-Pr... Roman
