| Dec 26, 2008 at 17:50 | comment | added | Dan Rosenstark | True regarding both of these points: last half deleted, since it is the same for zero-based or one-based arrays: count is 0 if you've got zero elements. | |

The count of an empty array is always 0, whether you use zero-based or one-based arrays. The advantage of one-based arrays is that the count is the position of the last element (but that's about the only advantage). | |
