#
This template is a helper template used by the mask subscript operator:
🔗
mask_array<T> valarray<T>::operator[](const valarray<bool>&).
2
#
It has reference semantics to a subset of an array specified by a boolean mask.
Thus, the expression a[mask] = b; has the effect of assigning the elements of b to the masked elements in a (those for which the corresponding element in mask is true).
