+## Usage
+
+```javascript
+var zeroToLike = require( '@stdlib/array/zero-to-like' );
+```
+
+#### zeroToLike( x\[, dtype] )
+
+Generates a linearly spaced numeric array whose elements increment by `1` starting from zero and having the same length and data type as a provided input array `x`.
+
+```javascript
+var arr = zeroToLike( [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ] );
+// returns [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]
+```
+
+The function recognizes the following data types:
+
+-   `float64`: double-precision floating-point numbers (IEEE 754)
+-   `float32`: single-precision floating-point numbers (IEEE 754)
+-   `complex128`: double-precision complex floating-point numbers
+-   `complex64`: single-precision complex floating-point numbers
+-   `int32`: 32-bit two's complement signed integers
+-   `uint32`: 32-bit unsigned integers
+-   `int16`: 16-bit two's complement signed integers
+-   `uint16`: 16-bit unsigned integers
+-   `int8`: 8-bit two's complement signed integers
+-   `uint8`: 8-bit unsigned integers
+-   `uint8c`: 8-bit unsigned integers clamped to `0-255`
+-   `generic`: generic JavaScript values
+
+By default, the output array data type is inferred from the provided array `x`. To return an array having a different data type, provide a `dtype` argument.
+
+```javascript
+var arr = zeroToLike( [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ], 'int32' );
+// returns <Int32Array>[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]
+```

+## Notes

+-   For complex number arrays, each element of the returned array has an imaginary component equal to `0`.

+var sort2hp = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/base/gsort2hp' );
+var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random/array/discrete-uniform' );

+
+// Generate an array of random numbers:
+var opts = {
+    'dtype': 'generic'
+};
+var x = discreteUniform( 10, 100, 200, opts );
+
+// Generate an array of indices:
+var idx = zeroToLike( x );
+
+// Create a temporary array to avoid mutation:
+var tmp = x.slice();
+
+// Sort the index array according to the sort order of `x`:
+sort2hp( x.length, 1, tmp, 1, idx, 1 );
+
+console.log( x );
