in reply to Re^3: why the array index has to start at 0??
in thread why the array index has to start at 0??

Please tell me who in India taught you how to code
Nobody taught me, I did self learning from C .. Perl.

who otherwise put the idea in your head that array indecies (or anything else programming-wise) should begin with 1
It is purely my idea/thought
BTW my idea is not to advocate anyone that start using the array index from 1, just wanted to know why it is that way.

so I can punch them in the neck.
you can't :)
