The main objection to tuple rather than array is that a tuple can't have 0 elements. I plan to alleviate that in VMD, which supports "emptiness", by allowing tuples and seqs to start or end as "emptiness". Of course testing for "emptiness" using variadic macros is very slightly flawed as you know, since you wrote that code, but since VMD supports "emptiness" I will add it to that library and then those who want to use tuples or seqs as starting ( or ending with ) 0 elements can do so.
Wait... what would be considered an empty tuple or sequence? Regards, Paul Mensonides
