For example, deep-copying an array produces a new array whose elements are deep copies of the original elements. Calling `deepcopy` on an object should generally have the same effect as serializing and then deserializing it. While it isn't normally necessary, user-defined types can override the default `deepcopy` behavior by defining a specialized version of the function `deepcopy_internal(x::T, dict::IdDict)` (which shouldn't otherwise be used), where `T` is the type to be specialized for, and `dict` keeps track of objects copied so far within the recursion. Within the definition, `deepcopy_internal` should be used in place of `deepcopy`, and the `dict` variable should be updated as appropriate before returning.
