How to use cDataSet.bigCommit() to create a copy of the values in a sheet

The .bigCommit() method of cDataSet will commit the contents of that dataset, normally back to the source sheet. However, bigcommit can also write to a different sheet. This behavior allows us make a copy of the values in a worksheet very simply.

VBA

Public Sub straightCopy()
    Dim ds As New cDataSet
    ds.populateData(wholeSheet("Sankey")).bigCommit _
            wholeSheet("messAround"), True

End Sub

Google Apps Script

function straightCopy() {
    new cDataSet().populateData(wholeSheet("Sankey")).bigCommit (
            wholeSheet("messAround"), true);
}
