Here, we follow J's [[j:Vocabulary/Idioms#Ordinal_Number|best practice for ordinal numbers]], which is that 0 is first and 1 is second. This emphasizes the distinction between cardinal numbers like 0 and ordinal numbers like first, accurately represents array indices, and neatly captures a variety of related linguistic issues.
Also, we use definitions from the [[Number_names#J|number names task]] and the [[N%27th#J|N'th task]]:
