Hello, concerning the subsequence function I would suggest to specify it similary to substring. This would be consistent and answer such questions like "what if $startingLoc is negative" etc. Additionally, item-at($seq, $pos) should IMO return the same as subsequence($seq, $pos, 1) i.e. instead of raising an error "Invalid position" this function would return the empty sequence if $pos is out of bounds. This poses the question if item-at is necessary at all, since subsequence($seq, $pos, 1) would do the task. Kind regards, Oliver /-------------------------------------------------------------------\ | ob|do Dipl.Inf.
