The can is open and the worms are everywhere, so:
The big problem with one-based indexing for numpy is interpretation.
In python indexing, -1 is the last element of the array, and ranges
have a specific meaning. In a hypothetical one-based indexing scheme,
would the last element be element 0? if n

Hehe, why didn't I think of that :)

Don't forget the everything-looks-like-a-nail approach: make all your
arrays one bigger than you need and ignore element zero.

I have a need to index my array(s) starting with a 1 instead of a 0.
The reason for this is to be consistent with the documentation of a
format I'm accessing. I know I can just '-1' from what the
documentation says, but that can get cumbersome.
Is there a magic flag I can pass to a numpy array (ma
