But Shari, the last comma provides zero as the last item. Not very
useful and potentially hazardous, I agree.

This may not affect any of you, but I discovered a change that has
sent me scurrying thru a lot of hoops wondering why my code was
broken.
The original Metacard handled the min() function as Hypercard once
did. But later versions handle it differently. If your program
was originally written in Hypercard or Metacard and ported to
Revolution, you might be affected by this.
The min() function returns different results depending on the
engine version:
min(1,2,3,4,) # note the extra comma
Hypercard 2.4.1 = 1
Metacard 2.4.3 = 1
MC/Rev 2.7.4 = 0
MC/Rev 2.8.1 = 0
I do not know if Rev would consider this a bug, or a "feature".
Does anybody know?
max(1,2,3,4,) produces 4, as one would expect.
