Hi, I'm not getting the expected results with slicing:

Strict
Local test[4]
test[0] = 10
test[1] = 20
test[2] = 30
test[3] = 40

Print Len(test)

test = test[1..2]

Print Len(test)

I'm expecting to see an array of length 2 but I get 1!

If I do test=test[2..2] I'd expect a single array slot but I get a length of 0, weird.

What am I doing wrong please?

Oh, also, is slicing 1-based? I assumed so as I thought 0..0 was a was to clear an array (instead of array=null)
