Fortran can use any indices you want by declaring it as
real foo(-10:10)
and has been able to do that for years.

When doing something like this, the easiest way to do it is to create an indexing
function negind as in following example
#!perl -w
my @array=(-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3);
sub negind ($\@) {
my $offset=shift;
my @negarr=@{+shift};
my $indoff=$offset + int (scalar @negarr)/2- 0.5;
The key is
$count = () = $string =~ /a/g;
Which creates a list context for return of match operator $string =~/regex/g
Then the $count= is asking for a scalar context return of a list, which we all know
returns the count of elements in list.
The expression
$count = (@temp) = $string =~ /a/g;
The "gibberish" is ANSI escape sequences for moving the cursor around on the screen
that the telnet server believes it is connected to. You need to turn it of with the
ANSI sequence by ensuring that Console mode is no.
