+        .. note::
+           When ``__getitem__`` is defined on an object, Python will automatically define iteration (i.e., the behavior from ``iter(x)``) as  ``x[0]``, ``x[1]``, ..., ``x[N-1]``. This can also be implemented directly by defining ``__iter__``. Therefore, for a one-dimensional array ``x``, iteration should produce a sequence of zero-dimensional arrays ``x[0]``, ``x[1]``, ..., ``x[N-1]``, where ``N`` is the number of elements in the array. Iteration behavior for arrays having zero dimensions or more than one dimension is unspecified and thus implementation-defined.
