OffsetArrays.jl

OffsetArrays provides Julia users with arrays that have arbitrary indices, similar to those found in some other programming languages like Fortran.

julia> using OffsetArrays

julia> y = OffsetArray{Float64}(undef, -1:1, -7:7, -128:512, -5:5, -1:1, -3:3, -2:2, -1:1);

julia> summary(y)
"OffsetArrays.OffsetArray{Float64,8,Array{Float64,8}} with indices -1:1×-7:7×-128:512×-5:5×-1:1×-3:3×-2:2×-1:1"

julia> y[-1,-7,-128,-5,-1,-3,-2,-1] = 14
14

julia> y[-1,-7,-128,-5,-1,-3,-2,-1] += 5
19.0

Notes on supporting OffsetArrays

Julia supports generic programming with arrays that doesn't require you to assume that indices start with 1, see the documentation.
