Retrieve single elements or portions of the array.
The const overloads that return element sequences create a new std::valarray object. The non-const overloads return classes holding references to the array elements.

[edit] Parameters
| This section is incomplete | 
[edit] Return value
1,2) A reference to the corresponding element
3,5,7,9) A std::valarray object containing copies of the selected items
4,6,8,10) The corresponding data structure containing references to the selected items 
[edit] Exceptions
(none)
[edit] Precondition
The selected elements must exist.
[edit] Notes
-  For proper values of iandj, the following properties are true:
1) (a[i] = q, a[i]) == q
-  For a non-const a.
2) &a[i+j] == &a[i] + j 
- This means that valarray elements are adjacent in memory.
3) &a[i] != &b[j]
- This holds for every objects aandbthat are not aliases of one another.
- This means that there are no aliases in the elements and this property can be used to perform some kinds of optimization.
- References become invalid on resize or when the array is destructed.
