I did a code that uses custom literals to allow indexing arrays with ordinals (1st, 2nd, 3rd), all at compile time. Additionally _st works only with 1, _nd only with 2, _rd only with 3. Zero and negative numbers are also not supported and fail compilation.

    There’s no purpose really. It was more of “wonder if I can” and also nice way to learn custom literals.

      Yeah it’s always a good way to learn things.

      I only asked because I was genuinely curious if there was something I was missing about why you created this, that’s all.
