* Produces a new array containing the elements between

* The component type of the subarray is always the same as

*
*
* Date[] someDates = (Date[])ArrayUtils.subarray(allDates, 2, 5);

*

* @param startIndexInclusive the starting index. Undervalue (<0)
* is promoted to 0, overvalue (>array.length) results
* in an empty array.
* @param endIndexExclusive elements up to endIndex-1 are present in the
* returned subarray. Undervalue (< startIndex) produces
* empty array, overvalue (>array.length) is demoted to
* array length.
* @return a new array containing the elements between
* the start and end indices.
