akira added the comment: > Aren't negative indexes well defined in Python?
yes. I've provided the link to Python docs [1] in msg214642 that explicitly defines the behavior: > If i or j is negative, the index is relative to the end of the string: > len(s) + i or len(s) + j is substituted. But note that -0 is still 0.
