https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/558 > There is a huge discussion about this on the mailing list; please see that. If 0 is mathematically "better", then why does the field of mathematics itself start indexes at 1? We have chosen 1 to be more similar to existing math software.
A post above also appeals to mathematica. It's been a while since I've had to internalize the "cost" of zero indexing, so this never felt very compelling. |
