array_slice -- Extract a slice of the array
Description
array array_slice (array array, int offset, int [length])
array_slice() returns a sequence of elements from the array
specified by the offset and length parameters.
If offset is positive, the sequence will start at that offset in the
array. If offset is negative, the sequence will start that far from the
end of the array.
If length is given and is positive, then the sequence will have that many
elements in it. If length is given and is negative then the sequence will stop that
many elements from the end of the array. If it is omitted, then the sequence will have everything
from offset up until the end of the array.

Example 1. array_slice() examples
$input = array ("a", "b", "c", "d", "e");
$output = array_slice ($input, 2); // returns "c", "d", and "e"
$output = array_slice ($input, 2, -1); // returns "c", "d"
$output = array_slice ($input, -2, 1); // returns "d"
$output = array_slice ($input, 0, 3); // returns "a", "b", and "c"
