| template< class T > struct remove_extent; | (since C++11) | 
If T is an array of some type X, provides the member typedef type equal to X, otherwise type is T. Note that if T is a multidimensional array, only the first dimension is removed.
The behavior of a program that adds specializations for remove_extent is undefined.
