Examples

Example 1:

[1,2,3,4] select 2 - result is 3

Example 2:

[1,2,3,4] select true - result is 2.
Alternative method. If the index is false, this selects the first element of the array. If it is true, it selects the second one. The reason for this is that false is an alias for 0 and true an alias for 1. Obsolete syntax.

Example 3:

position player select 2 - result is Z coordinate of player position (see Position for more details)
