Heeeere's Johnny!

_array deleteAt 0is almost 60x faster than_array = _array - [_array select 0](Tested with an array of 10.000 strings, iterating through it using a for-from-to-do loop)

Array "shift" implementation using deleteAt, alternative to BIS_fnc_arrayShift KK_fnc_shift = { _this deleteAt 0 }; // Example arr = [1,2,3]; arr call KK_fnc_shift; //return of function is 1, arr now is [2,3]

Array "pop" implementation using deleteAt, alternative to BIS_fnc_arrayPop KK_fnc_pop = { _this deleteAt (count _this - 1) }; // Example arr = [1,2,3]; arr call KK_fnc_pop; //return of function is 3, arr now is [1,2]
