Initializing a std::array with a constant value

With std::index_sequence, you might do:

namespace detail
{
    template <typename T, std::size_t ... Is>
    constexpr std::array<T, sizeof...(Is)>
    create_array(T value, std::index_sequence<Is...>)
    {
        // cast Is to void to remove the warning: unused value
        return {{(static_cast<void>(Is), value)...}};
    }
}

template <std::size_t N, typename T>
constexpr std::array<T, N> create_array(const T& value)
{
    return detail::create_array(value, std::make_index_sequence<N>());
}

With usage

auto a = create_array<10 /*, int*/>(7); // auto is std::array<int, 10>

Which, contrary to std::fill solution, handle non default constructible types.
