Finally I came to a conclusion that for matrices and vectors (which unlike arrays are purely math concepts) it is more reasonable to preserve default math (1:n) indexing. On the other hand for arrays, which give us an example of internal language type, is also natural to use default indexing scheme for this language (0:n-1 for C/C++, 1:n for FORTRAN). Regards, Pasha
