but this depends a lot on the particular formula. For example, if you use discrete Furier transforms, all formulas are natural with 0-indexing, but weird with 1-indexing. In general, when the indices of an array are to be interpreted as modulo N, you want them to be 0, 1, ..., N-1 It is inevitable to have to use both conventions if you do varied math stuff. Thus, you will never be happy.

The pragmatic solution for transcribing is probably to make some functions `array_index` and `array_slice` that automatically convert between the two conventions. I think Julia offers another way: It lets you choose between them.
