"Should array indices start at 0 or 1? My compromise of 0.5 was rejected without, I thought, proper consideration." — Stan Kelly-Bootle Thanks for putting in that one in. Stan Kelly-Bootle was one of my favorite writers. He recently died, but he was a Brit who wrote computer books and folk songs. I think people who dual-specialize, in something left-brained and something else right-brained, are better at both. I've only read parts of one of his books, a 90s book about UNIX. It was so clear and fun to read while seeming to break many rules about writing clearly. I'm not sure how it works.
