| ANSI Common Lisp 17 Sequences 17.3 Dictionary of Sequences
17.3.4 fill | Function
  Syntax: fill sequence item `&key` start end sequence Arguments and Values: sequence - a proper sequence. item - a sequence. start, end - bounding index designators of sequence. The defaults for start and end are `0` and nil, respectively. Description: Replaces the elements of sequence bounded by start and end with item. Examples:
       (fill (list 0 1 2 3 4 5) '(444))  ((444) (444) (444) (444) (444) (444))
       (fill (copy-seq "01234") #\e :start 3)  "012ee"
       (setq x (vector 'a 'b 'c 'd 'e))  #(A B C D E)
       (fill x 'z :start 1 :end 3)  #(A Z Z D E)
       x  #(A Z Z D E)
       (fill x 'p)  #(P P P P P)
       x  #(P P P P P)
Side Effects: Sequence is destructively modified. Exceptional Situations: Should be prepared to signal an error of type type-error if sequence is not a proper sequence. Should signal an error of type type-error if start is not a non-negative integer. Should signal an error of type type-error if end is not a non-negative integer or nil. See Also: replace, nsubstitute Notes: `(fill sequence item) == (nsubstitute-if item (constantly t) sequence)` Allegro CL Implementation Details: None.
