[Gretl-devel] string with integer offset: off-by-one bug or unclear doc?

Hi, not sure if this is intended (probably), or just an oversight from 0-based to 1-based indexing: string ss = "abc" eval ss + 1 # gives "bc" The doc (ch. 14) says: " ...starting at the given character offset." Normally I would interpret "starting at" meaning "right there", so in the above example starting from the 1st character ("a"). OTOH I can see that an "offset" could mean "right after that". I tend to think this isn't a bug, but perhaps the doc could be reformulated as "starting at the character after the given offset". thanks, sven
