reference       operator[]( size_type pos );
const_reference operator[]( size_type pos ) const;

Returns a reference to the character at specified location pos. No bounds checking is performed.

1) If pos == size(), the behavior is undefined.
2) If pos == size(), a reference to the character with value CharT() (the null character) is returned.
(until C++11)

If pos == size(), a reference to the character with value CharT() (the null character) is returned.
