{{alias}}( x )
    Copies an input ndarray to a new ndarray having the same shape and data
    type.

    The function performs a full copy in which an ndarray's underlying data is
    copied to a new underlying data buffer.

    Along with data type, shape, and order, the function infers the "class" of
    the returned ndarray from the provided ndarray. For example, if provided a
    "base" ndarray, the function returns a base ndarray. If provided a non-base
    ndarray, the function returns a non-base ndarray.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x: ndarray
        Input array.

    Returns
    -------
    out: ndarray
        Output array.

    Examples
    --------
    > var x = {{alias:@stdlib/ndarray/base/zeros}}( 'float64', [ 2, 2 ], 'row-major' )
    <ndarray>
    > var sh = {{alias:@stdlib/ndarray/shape}}( x )
    [ 2, 2 ]
    > var y = {{alias}}( x )
    <ndarray>
    > sh = {{alias:@stdlib/ndarray/shape}}( y )
    [ 2, 2 ]
