## Required methods

### `fn get(self, slice: &T) -> Option<&Self::Output>`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a shared reference to the output at this location, if in bounds.

### `fn get_mut(self, slice: &mut T) -> Option<&mut Self::Output>`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a mutable reference to the output at this location, if in bounds.

### `unsafe fn get_unchecked(self, slice: &T) -> &Self::Output`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a shared reference to the output at this location, without performing any bounds checking. Calling this method with an out-of-bounds index is [undefined behavior] even if the resulting reference is not used. [undefined behavior]: ../../reference/behavior-considered-undefined.html

### `unsafe fn get_unchecked_mut(self, slice: &mut T) -> &mut Self::Output`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a mutable reference to the output at this location, without performing any bounds checking. Calling this method with an out-of-bounds index is [undefined behavior] even if the resulting reference is not used. [undefined behavior]: ../../reference/behavior-considered-undefined.html

### `fn index(self, slice: &T) -> &Self::Output`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a shared reference to the output at this location, panicking if out of bounds.

### `fn index_mut(self, slice: &mut T) -> &mut Self::Output`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_index_methods`)

Returns a mutable reference to the output at this location, panicking if out of bounds.

# Examples

    let s = "Löwe 老虎 Léopard";
    assert_eq!(&s[0 .. 1], "L");

    assert_eq!(&s[1 .. 9], "öwe 老");

    // these will panic:
    // byte 2 lies within `ö`:
    // &s[2 ..3];

    // byte 8 lies within `老`
    // &s[1 .. 8];

    // byte 100 is outside the string
    // &s[3 .. 100];
