  - ### Method Detail

    - #### isReadonly

          public final boolean isReadonly()

      Determine whether the consumer is entitled to write to the exported storage.

      Declared `final` returning `true` in `SimpleWritableBuffer` to make checks unnecessary.

      Specified by:
        `isReadonly` in interface `PyBUF`
      Overrides:
        `isReadonly` in class `BaseBuffer`
      Returns:
        true if writing is not allowed, false if it is.

    - #### getBufferSlice

          public PyBuffer getBufferSlice(int flags,
                                         int start,
                                         int count)

      Equivalent to `PyBuffer.getBufferSlice(int, int, int, int)` with stride 1.

      `SimpleWritableBuffer` provides an implementation ensuring the returned slice is writable.

      Specified by:
        `getBufferSlice` in interface `PyBuffer`
      Overrides:
        `getBufferSlice` in class `SimpleBuffer`
      Parameters:
        `flags` - specifying features demanded and the navigational capabilities of the consumer
        `start` - index in the current buffer
        `count` - number of items in the required slice
      Returns:
        a buffer representing the slice

    - #### getBufferSlice

          public PyBuffer getBufferSlice(int flags,
                                         int start,
                                         int count,
                                         int stride)

      Get a `PyBuffer` that represents a slice of the current one described in terms of a start index, number of items to include in the slice, and the stride in the current buffer. A consumer that obtains a `PyBuffer` with `getBufferSlice` must release it with `PyBuffer.release()` just as if it had been obtained with `PyBuffer.getBuffer(int)`

      Suppose that x(i) denotes the ith element of the current buffer, that is, the byte retrieved by `this.byteAt(i)` or the unit indicated by `this.getPointer(i)`. A request for a slice where `start` = s, `count` = N and `stride` = m, results in a buffer y such that y(k) = x(s+km) where k=0..(N-1). In Python terms, this is the slice x[s : s+(N-1)m+1 : m] (if m>0) or the slice x[s : s+(N-1)m-1 : m] (if m<0). Implementations should check that this range is entirely within the current buffer.

      In a simple buffer backed by a contiguous byte array, the result is a strided PyBuffer on the same storage but where the offset is adjusted by s and the stride is as supplied. If the current buffer is already strided and/or has an item size larger than single bytes, the new `start` index, `count` and `stride` will be translated from the arguments given, through this buffer's stride and item size. The caller always expresses `start` and `strides` in terms of the abstract view of this buffer.

      `SimpleBuffer` provides an implementation for slicing contiguous bytes in one dimension. In that case, x(i) = u(r+i) for i = 0..L-1 where u is the underlying buffer, and r and L are the start and count with which x was created from u. Thus y(k) = u(r+s+km), that is, the composite offset is r+s and the stride is m.

      `SimpleWritableBuffer` provides an implementation ensuring the returned slice is writable.

      Specified by:
        `getBufferSlice` in interface `PyBuffer`
      Overrides:
        `getBufferSlice` in class `SimpleBuffer`
      Parameters:
        `flags` - specifying features demanded and the navigational capabilities of the consumer
        `start` - index in the current buffer
        `count` - number of items in the required slice
        `stride` - index-distance in the current buffer between consecutive items in the slice
      Returns:
        a buffer representing the slice
