Editing Array slicing (section)

===2005: [[Friendly interactive shell|fish]]===
Arrays in [[Friendly interactive shell|fish]] are always one-based, thus the indices of a new slice will begin with ''one'', regardless of the previous indices.
<syntaxhighlight lang="fishshell">
> set A (seq 3 2 11)       # $A is an array with the values 3, 5, 7, 9, 11
 
> echo $A[(seq 2)]         # Print the first two elements of $A 
3 5
 
> set B $A[1 2]            # $B contains the first and second element of $A, i.e. 3, 5
 
> set -e A[$B]; echo $A    # Erase the third and fifth elements of $A, print $A
3 5 9
