Why not? Anything that C can index, can be indexed with []. Do you have in mind something in C that cannot be indexed with []? (Things such as bit-arrays which are not built-in to the language don't count. There you might well need to bolt together accessors from macros and functions, which will need different names for different types. But for things which are part of the language, you expect a consistent, polymorphic interface. And in a language such as C++, that provides a way of extending that interface - use of [] and so on - even to user-defined types.) -- Bartc
