Description:
------------
The start_index and num parameters of array_fill are described thus:
start_index
    The first index of the returned array. Supports non-negative indexes only.
num
    Number of elements to insert

Actually--and as illustrated in example #1--the start_index argument does support a negative value.  The num argument, however, does not.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
