The default array base (lower bound) can be set with OPTION BASE. If OPTION BASE is not set, the base may be either 0 or 1, depending on implementation. The value given in DIM statement is the upper bound. If the base is 0, then DIM a(100) will create an array containing 101 elements. |

Alternatively, the lower and upper bounds can be given while defining the array: |
