The same as vector-ref with a vector or length zero.  Which is the same as (array-ref arr 10 10) for a 5x5 array.
I.e. it throws an index-out-of-range error.

Not really. When you catch and print out data (if any) associated with the error
ideally it should tell you the invalid indexes along with the array bounds, but that's
just to help debugging.
