When a list becomes a tuple and all of a sudden a 10 lines functions (that
calls other functions) returns wrong answers I swear that you don't. Come
on Travis open your eyes, this thing is dead misleading.

Travis, you can't even expect an user to be able to get the doc for () and
[]. And it's not even the problem. This [] notation is about considering a
1-based permutation as a 0-based arrays that returns 1-based indices.

Can you really not see that it is a bad idea ?
