Hello all, long time!

The following script (apologies - rather contrived) is an example of a function which does not error when compiled but manages to mutate one of its inputs (not intentionally).

It you call the compiled function with the same inputs many times, you find the mutated input switches from one set of values to another; the 'other' values are very close to the original input values.

Per the note, simply copying the input makes all the assertions pass, as you'd expect.

Just wasn't sure why the input gets modified / why the copy is needed - this might be more of a question than an issue, but it took a while to track down so thought it might be worth posting in case other users find it of interest.

Cheers

Rob
