Vararg{T,N}

The last parameter of a tuple type [`Tuple`](@ref) can be the special type `Vararg`, which denotes any
number of trailing elements. The type `Vararg{T,N}` corresponds to exactly `N` elements of type `T`.
The last parameter of a tuple type [`Tuple`](@ref) can be the special value `Vararg`, which denotes any
number of trailing elements. `Vararg{T,N}` corresponds to exactly `N` elements of type `T`. Finally
`Vararg{T}` corresponds to zero or more elements of type `T`. `Vararg` tuple types are used to represent the
arguments accepted by varargs methods (see the section on [Varargs Functions](@ref) in the manual.)

The special value `Vararg{T,N}` (when used as the last parameter of a tuple type)
corresponds to exactly `N` elements of type `T`. `NTuple{N,T}` is a convenient
alias for `Tuple{Vararg{T,N}}`, i.e. a tuple type containing exactly `N` elements of type `T`.
