custom function for manipulating builtin array

Question

is there a way to write custom functions for manipulating builtin array of any type?

such as making the following function to accept any type: funtion doublingArraySize(array:){ array=new [array.length*2]; }

intArray:int[]=new int[1]; floatArray:float[]=new float[1]; doublingArraySize(intArray); doublingArraySize(floatArray); //intArray and floatArray can now contains 2elements each

if not possible, is it possible to write reusable code for manipulating builtin array?

You could do such things with C# & generics, e.g.:

 void Foo<T>(T[] a) where T : new() {
     a[0] = new T();    
 }

UnityScript/JavaScript however doesn't let you write generic code, only use it.
