!    Fills a newly created bidimensional array with non-null values.

!    A typical usage is to allocate a new array and set its values at the same time:
!    <code>
!      String[][] coords = new String[10][10].fill((int i, int j) => ""i","j);
!    </code>
! 
!    The equivalent code in Java would be:
!    <code>
!      String[][] coords = new String[10][10];
!      for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
!        for (int j = 0; j < 10; i++)
!          coords[i] = i + "," + j;
