Get a subbytes 0x[10 01] from the bytes 0x[33 44 55 10 01 13]

>  0x[33 44 55 10 01 13] | bytes at 3..<4
Length: 1 (0x1) bytes | printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii
00000000:   10                                                   •

Get a subbytes 0x[10 01 13] from the bytes 0x[33 44 55 10 01 13]

>  0x[33 44 55 10 01 13] | bytes at 3..6
Length: 3 (0x3) bytes | printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii
00000000:   10 01 13                                             •••

Get the remaining characters from a starting index

>  { data: 0x[33 44 55 10 01 13] } | bytes at 3.. data
╭──────┬─────────────╮
│ data │ [16, 1, 19] │
╰──────┴─────────────╯

Get the characters from the beginning until ending index

>  0x[33 44 55 10 01 13] | bytes at ..<4
Length: 4 (0x4) bytes | printable whitespace ascii_other non_ascii
00000000:   33 44 55 10                                          3DU•

Or the characters from the beginning until ending index inside a table

>  [[ColA ColB ColC]; [0x[11 12 13] 0x[14 15 16] 0x[17 18 19]]] | bytes at 1.. ColB ColC
