Hi

I have some trouble understanding what are the ValArray slices classes.

Are they just like pointers in the sense that they do not copy the data 
but just select it?

Or are they arrays of their own with their own data.

Or do they produce an array of indices?

ValArray classes aren't even mentioned in the C++ Primer book (Lippman 
et al) not are they mentioned in the one of Plaugher. The only docs are 
some scanty web pages and the standard, what is not that easy to understand.

Thanks in advance for some short tutorial or a pointer to one.
