Perchance programming with pointers has plunged as a percentage of programmers.

But thank you. I was hoping someone would notice that.

Well, you don’t really see many people accessing lists with pointers directly. Also 0-indexing does give us an extra number to index with(say 1-255 vs 0-255)

Edit: 0-255, not 0-256

It’s 0-255 when you’re indexing like that. 11111111b = 255.
