        "If one is sure that the elements exist, it is also possible
        to index backwards in an array; p[-1], p[-2], and so on are
        syntactically legal, and refer to the elements that
        immediately precede p[0]. Of course, it is illegal to refer to
        objects that are not within the array bounds."
