            `doc[start : end]`.

        EXAMPLE:
            >>> doc[i]
            Get the `Token` object at position `i`, where `i` is an integer.
            Negative indexing is supported, and follows the usual Python
            semantics, i.e. `doc[-2]` is `doc[len(doc) - 2]`.

            >>> doc[start : end]]
            Get a `Span` object, starting at position `start` and ending at
            position `end`, where `start` and `end` are token indices. For
            instance, `doc[2:5]` produces a span consisting of tokens 2, 3 and
            4. Stepped slices (e.g. `doc[start : end : step]`) are not
            supported, as `Span` objects must be contiguous (cannot have gaps).
            You can use negative indices and open-ended ranges, which have
            their normal Python semantics.
