- ``==^`` selects the first array element that ends with the right operand
- ``*==`` selects the first array element that contains the right operand
The selected role value can also be sliced using the slice operator ``[a:b]``. It is similar to `slice operator in python <https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#slice>`_. Negative index values are also supported. The syntax is as:
- ``[a:b]`` take slice from index ``a`` up to ``b``
- ``[a:]`` take slice from index ``a`` to end
- ``[:b]`` take slice from start to index ``b``
- ``[:]`` select everything, no slicing
.. important::
Make sure that you are not taking a slice where the start index comes after the end index like ``[11:2]``. The result of this would be empty string and so no role would get selected.
