Comments

In the first variant, the operator replaces objects starting at index IndexInt within the array
AnyArray. The replacement continues for the number of elements in SubArray. Array indexes
range from zero to N-1, where N is the number of elements in the array. The operator replaces the
AnyArray objects with duplicates of objects in the array SubArray. For composite objects, the
duplicate objects share their data with the original objects in the SubArray.

In the second variant, the operator replaces characters starting at index IndexInt within the string
AnyStr. The replacement continues for the number of characters in SubStr. String character
indexes range from zero to N-1, where N is the number of characters in the string. The operator
replaces the AnyStr characters with the characters from SubStr.
