Thank you. Here is the comment I added:
Computing the array lower bound is pretty easy, but this function
does some additional verifications before returning the low bound.
If something incorrect is detected, it is better to return a status
rather than throwing an error, making it easier for the caller to
implement an error-recovery plan. For instance, it may decide to
warn the user that the bound was not found and then use a default
value instead. */
It occurs to me that we might eventually want to move this function
somewhere more general, add a parameter for the upper bound, and use
it everywhere... Some thoughts for a rainy day...
Patch checked in.
Currently working on the testcase and doc.
Thanks,
