Subject: Noob question: why sequences, lists in particular start at index 0 in Elisp?
Date: Sun, 08 Nov 2020 14:32:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <VI1PR06MB4526D9259AFBC8E9C71D211396EB0@VI1PR06MB4526.eurprd06.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

I understand why they do so in C; but why in Elisp?

Just a curious question.
