</div>

A new tensor with `reference`'s shape and dtype, filled with `fill_value`.

`fill_value` takes the same forms as [`full`](./full.md#full)'s: a bool, an integer, a double, or a tensor (0-D, or broadcastable to the reference's shape).

**Parameters**

- `reference`: shape/dtype donor; its data is never read.
- `fill_value`: the value, cast to the reference's dtype.
- `device`: stream or device; absent = the reference's own device. Default: absent.

**Throws**

- `ClikaRT::Error`: when the input's dtype is not served for this operation (the machine-readable reason rides `code_name()`).

**Returns:** a new filled tensor shaped like `reference`.
