10.4.2 Zero-Based Arrays

guideline

  • Use zero-based indexing for arrays when measured performance indicates.

  • rationale

    For some compilers, offset calculations for an array whose lower bound is 0 (either the integer zero or the first value of an enumeration type) are simplified. For other compilers, optimization is more likely if the lower bound is 1.
