Someone asks you which element is 23. Now the paradox is this: You may answer only 'zeroth' or 'first'. How do you respond?

But disregarding that, I like zeroth.

For c, it is the zeroth element. Also, lol.
But if you are implementing something for human use, you should translate this to 'first element'.

int *array[] Guffaw
Anyway, it's o-'th as in goat without the g and the deliberate non-pronunciation of the t (as if you were a lazy teenage commoner), then th with no vocal resonance.

If you want. Note: I do not endorse the use of numberth beyond 'zero' (and in rare cases 'one') and I generally prefer 'first' to 'zeroth'. In fact, if you say twoth or threeth, I will probably treat you like someone with special needs.

Someone asks you which element is 23.
I tell him there is not enough information to evaluate the problem since I do not know what the memory locations listed contain.
