- Jtsummers 1y ago> i was trying to encourage you to use 0-based indexes so i failed I'd say you never actually tried. Your argument was unserious. It was simply: "1-based indexing confuses me". Even if people try to treat it as an actual argument, it's weak. Spanish confuses me, should Spanish speakers switch to English on my behalf? No. I should learn Spanish, get an interpreter, or use tools to help me converse with them. And 1-based indexing is much simpler than Spanish. If it actually confuses you then something else is going on. Every 5-year-old I know understands it, that's a low bar to beat for an adult. Go see Dijkstra's argument for 0-based indexing, that's an actual argument. Yours was not.
