There are further built-in methods for arrays:

* `a.insert(i, val)` inserts a new element `val` at index `i` and
* `a.repeat(n)` concatenates the array elements `n` times
* `a.insert(i, val)` inserts a new element `val` at index `i` and
shifts all following elements to the right

V supports array and string slices with negative indexes.
Negative indexing starts from the end of the array towards the start,
for example `-3` is equal to `array.len - 3`.
for example `-3` is equal to `array.len - 3`.
Negative slices have a different syntax from normal slices, i.e. you need
to add a `gate` between the array name and the square bracket: `a#[..-3]`.
The `gate` specifies that this is a different type of slice and remember that

## Custom error types
V gives you the ability to define custom error types through the `IError` interface.
The interface requires two methods: `msg() string` and `code() int`. Every type that
implements these methods can be used as an error.
