Valarray gslice selection

This class is used as an intermediate type returned by the non-constant version of valarray's subscript operator (valarray operator[] ) when used with gslices.

It contains references to the elements in the valarray object that are selected in a gslice, and overloads the assignment and compound assignment operators, allowing direct access to the elements in the selection when used as l-value (left-value of an assignment operation).

When used as r-value (right-value of an assignment operation), it can initialize a valarray object, since valarray has a constructor taking a gslice_array object as argument.

All the constructors of this class are private, preventing direct instantiations by a program - its only purpose is to be an efficient way to access the elements selected by a gslice with valarray's operator[] .

It is declared as:

// gslice_array example
#include <iostream>
#include <valarray>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
  valarray<int> foo (14);
  for (int i=0; i<14; ++i) foo[i]=i;
  size_t start=1;
  size_t lengths[]= {2,3};
  size_t strides[]= {7,2};
  gslice mygslice (start,valarray<size_t>(lengths,2),valarray<size_t>(strides,2));
  foo[mygslice] = 0;
  cout << "foo:\n";
  for (size_t n=0; n<foo.size(); n++)
	  cout << foo[n] << ' ';
  cout << endl;
  return 0;
}


Output:

0 0 2 0 4 0 6 7 0 9 0 11 0 13
