2.11 Aliasing of arrays
The library assumes that arrays, vectors and matrices passed as
modifiable arguments are not aliased and do not overlap with each other.
This removes the need for the library to handle overlapping memory
regions as a special case, and allows additional optimizations to be
used. If overlapping memory regions are passed as modifiable arguments
then the results of such functions will be undefined. If the arguments
will not be modified (for example, if a function prototype declares them
as const
arguments) then overlapping or aliased memory regions
can be safely used.
