…That kind of makes sense. Or should you use (0,0)-(1,1) for a single pixel, and (0,0)-(0,0) is an empty rectangle? These are not easy questions to answer. One of the best explanations I've seen was in Inside Macintosh, written by my friend Caroline Rose. Here is a discussion with Guido's and Caroline's thoughts on zeroes and ones: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6602497 Let me leave you with an Amicus Curiae…

…writer. She not only can explain things in clear and simple terms, but she was also an accomplished programmer before branching into technical writing. Here is a story about the documentation that became Inside Macintosh: > I sat down to meet with Caroline for the first time, and she couldn't have been more different than the previous writer.

……这样似乎挺合乎逻辑。或者说，你应该用 (0,0)-(1,1) 来表示单个像素，而 (0,0)-(0,0) 表示一个空矩形吗？这些问题并不好回答。我见过讲得最好的解释之一出自《Inside Macintosh》，是我朋友 Caroline Rose 写的。这里有一段讨论，包含了 Guido 和 Caroline 对 0 和 1 的看法：https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6602497 顺便给你们留一份法庭之友简报……

对比一下[1]：> 很快我就发现，如果 Caroline [Rose，《Inside Macintosh》第一版的作者] 对某个地方理解有困难，那大概率意味着这个设计本身是有缺陷的。[1] https://www.folklore.org/Inside_Macintosh.html

……作者。她不仅能把事情讲得浅显易懂，而且在转行做技术写作之前本身就是一名出色的程序员。这里有个关于后来成为《Inside Macintosh》的那份文档的故事：> 我第一次坐下来和 Caroline 开会，她跟之前的作者简直判若两人。我刚开始解释第一个例程，她就劈头盖脸向我抛来一连串问题……
