proposal-array-nth-last: array[^n] syntax

# Cyril Auburtin (5 years ago)

This is mostly in reaction of keithamus/proposal-array-last. The initial idea is great, but the approach in that proposal is quite limited, cumbersome

I'm happy if someone can help writing some ES spec for it

Thanks Isiah,

Yes I suggested it in keithamus/proposal-array-last#28 but I think it's going in a different direction

Array.prototype.at is probably not in the spirit of String.prototype.at proposal mathiasbynens/String.prototype.at#2

I think I should rename my proposal to something like protocol-index or symbol.index
