Does a cursor in Android reference columns from 0 or 1?

Question

I am working with an SQLite Database and I am returning cursors successfully but I was wondering if a cursor references columns starting with 0 like arrays or just 1?

Answer 1

I have no idea how you searched in Google, but from the official documentation of Android Cursor

public abstract int getColumnIndex (String columnName) Since: API Level 1

Returns the zero-based index for the given column name, or -1 if the column doesn't exist. If you expect the column to exist use getColumnIndexOrThrow(String) instead, which will make the error more clear. Parameters columnName the name of the target column. Returns

the zero-based column index for the given column name, or -1 if the column name does not exist.

And you were really not able to find that, but a bunch of useless stuff?
