ElemType toml::table, toml::array, or a native TOML value type
Parameters
index The element's index.
Returns A pointer to the selected element if it existed and was of the specified type, or nullptr.
auto arr = toml::array{ 42, "is the meaning of life, apparently."sv };
if (toml::value<int64_t>* val = arr.get_as<int64_t>(0))
    std::cout << "element [0] is an integer with value "sv << *val << "\n";
element [0] is an integer with value 42

template <typename ElemType>
const impl::wrap_node<ElemType>* toml::array::get_as(size_t index) const noexcept
