Lua also let's you start arrays at 3.

As does Perl with `$[`[0][1]

[0] "This variable stores the index of the first element in an array, and of the first character in a substring."

[1] With the caveat: 'As of Perl v5.30.0, or under "use v5.16", or "no feature "array_base"", $[ no longer has any effect"'

You can start your arrays in Lua at 0. Conventionally you don't, but you can.
