Jun 27, 2015 · About why would someone want to use negative indexes, I have used them in two contexts: Having a table of combinatorial numbers that tells you comb[1][-1] = 0; you can always check indexes before accessing the table, but this way the code looks cleaner and executes faster. Putting a centinel at the beginning of a table. For instance, you want ...
