Of course, that's not legal C, but I made it so that it's consistent with other functions such as char *strncpy(char dst[restrict .dsize], const char *restrict src, size_t dsize); Where dst is an array of char, that is, char[]. Using array notation let's us document the number of elements in the array. Have a lovely day!
