Benjamin Lerer commented on CASSANDRA-7396:
-------------------------------------------

{quote}There's some incorrectness with nested slice/element selections:{quote}

I had a look at the queries and the results are actually the good ones. 

{code}
cqlsh> select m[1..][2] from foo.t1 where id='1';

 m[1..][2]
-----------
      null
{code}

{{m\[1..\]}} is not returning a single value. It is returning a slice of the 
map which is also in this case the original map: {{*\{1:\{ 2: 'one-two'\} \}*}}.
{{\[2\]}} requires the map entry with the key {{2}} which does not exist. Due 
to that a {{null}} is returned. 

{code}
cqlsh> select m[1][..2] from foo.t1 where id='1';

 m[1][..2]
----------------
 {2: 'one-two'}
{code}
{{m\[1\]}} returns the map-entry with the key 1: {{*\{2: 'one-two'\}*}}. 
{{\[..2\]}} return a slice of that map which include the map-entry with the key 
, so also: {{*\{2: 'one-two'\}*}}  


{code}
cqlsh> select m[1..][..2] from foo.t1 where id='1';

 m[1..][..2]
---------------------
 {1: {2: 'one-two'}}
{code}
{{m\[1..\]}} is returning a slice of the map which is also in this case the 
original map: {{*\{\{1: \{2: 'one-two'\} \}*}} and {{\[..2\]}} returns another 
slice of the map which is also the original map.
