No, real mean code in binary with toggle switches...

I remember toggling in the bootstrap loader on the front panel of many a PDP-11. One time I must have toggled in the bootstrap loader on a particular PDP-11 at least a half dozen times with it failing to boot each time before I realized the system disk was still sitting on the table next to me.

That's about right.

Pascal allows you to specify the range. And with OOP you can define a class that implements arbitrary indexing, e.g. new MyArray ( -5 , 10 ) .

In a separate millenium I wrote a 1 based C++ string class - I think that was the best argument for zero based code I've ever seen.

'0' based one- Just called it Orray.

Standard & Mutant ? why was Pascal 1 based? anyone know if Delphi is has one based arrays as it might explain some error generated by a test application I have to use?

Even BASIC[^] starts at 0.

Yes, zero-based and one-based indexing are correct terms.
