Arrays not starting at 1 bother me. I think the entrenched 0-based index is more important than any major push to use 1 instead, but if I could go back in time and change it I would.

Haven't heard of the stack address thing, anyone got a TLDR on the topic?

Pretty sure that it’s something a long the lines of “stack begins high, grows down, while heap behind low grows high” when they meet, it’s a stack overflow

They don't have to meet, the max stack size is defined at compile time
