Wouldn't max value for 8 bit (unsigned) integer be 255? Like the number has 256 distinct values, but that includes 0.

Computers start counting at zero, (unless it's python) so the first person in the group would be ID 0, the second person would be ID 1

At a basic level python normally counts from zero (indices as an example)
