[null,null,["Last updated 2024-07-13 UTC."],[],["This document describes the `Image.slice` function, which extracts a subset of bands from an image. It takes two integer arguments: `start`, indicating the beginning band index (supporting negative indexing), and an optional `end` to specify the final band. If `end` is absent, it selects all bands from `start` to the end. The function returns a new `Image` object containing the selected contiguous bands.\n"]]
