Indexing is zero based. The range of a selection is from 0..N where N is the number of characters in the widget.
Text selections are specified in terms of caret positions. In a text widget that contains N characters, there are N+1 caret positions, ranging from 0..N. This differs from other functions that address character position such as getText () that use the usual array indexing rules.

- {int[]} selection
- array representing the selection start and end
