<p>However, if the byte slice is not long enough
to contain target type, or if it doesn't
satisfy the type's alignment requirements,
the function returns an error.</p>
<p>The function will not fail when the
byte slice is longer than necessary, since it is
a common practice to interpret the beginning of
a slice as a fixed-size header.</p>
<p>In many cases it is preferrable to allocate
a value/slice of the target type and use
<a href="fn.copy_from_bytes.html"><code>copy_from_bytes()</code></a> to copy
data instead. That way, any issues with alignment
are implicitly avoided.</p>
