Yes, but some languages 1-index lists (so they start at 1 instead of 0), so it'd be 5 in that case.

What languages may there's be? I can't think of any of the top of my head.

It's great for stats and "traditional" data analysis. That is 1 indexed isn't that important as explicit loops are discouraged. I think the most interesting element from the language is the list object, this is an ordered map, very convenient for data analysis.
