That means it's not implemented yet, unfortunately. By the way, if you have trouble remembering that negative indexes for arrays are now *-n, recall that the * is generally called 'whatever', so it's 'whatever - 1', and the 'whatever' in this case fills in to be 'however many things are in the array, the precise value of which I really don't care about'.
