While the decision to make it possible to set the lower bound index value arbitrarily was made before I was active in the project, I imagine it went something like this: Person 1: We should make our arrays similar to those found in a certain proprietary system's standard procedural language - with one as a lower bound. Person 2: I don't like that, it should always be zero. Person 1: We can all be winners. -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
