Returns a path element which selects the element layout in a
range of positions in a sequence layout. The range is expressed as a pair of starting index (inclusive)
S
and step factor (which can also be negative)
F
. If a path with free dimensions
n
is combined with the path element returned by this method, the number of free dimensions of the resulting path will be
1 + n
. If the free dimension associated with this path is bound by an index
I
, the resulting accessed offset can be obtained with the following formula:
E * (S + I * F)
where
E
is the size (in bytes) of the sequence element layout.
