For example:

julia> identity.(Zeros(2))
2-element Fill{Float64}, with entries equal to 0.0

julia> identity.(Ones(2))
2-element Fill{Float64}, with entries equal to 1.0

julia> ComplexF64.(Zeros(2))
2-element Fill{ComplexF64}, with entries equal to 0.0 + 0.0im

julia> ComplexF64.(Ones(2))
2-element Fill{ComplexF64}, with entries equal to 1.0 + 0.0im

julia> complex.(Zeros(2))
2-element Fill{ComplexF64}, with entries equal to 0.0 + 0.0im

julia> complex.(Ones(2))
2-element Fill{ComplexF64}, with entries equal to 1.0 + 0.0im

julia> pkgversion(FillArrays)
