【No. 0603】0th Floor
Aug 12, 2016 01:44
The US, Japan, and many other countries think of a ground floor as a first floor.
On the other hand, the UK, European countries, and Australia think of a ground floor as a 0th floor.
Therefore, a first floor for the UK corresponds to a second floor for us.
I have never thought that the counting from first floor is wrong, but for basement floors, we count B1 (-1), B2 (-2), ...
Considering the number increases by one each floor, it might make sense that the ground floor is a 0th floor.
Also, counting from zero is approachable for many programmers.

0階
アメリカや日本、その他多くの国では、建物の最初の階を1階としています。
一方、イギリスやオーストラリアでは、建物の最初の階を0階としています。
したがって、イギリスにとっての1階は、我々にとっての2階になります。
私はこれまで1階から数えることに何も疑問を抱いていませんでしたが、地下はB1（-1）、B2（-2）と数えていきます。
数字が1ずつ増えていくことを考えると、地上は0としたほうが理にかなっているかもしれません。
また、プログラマにとっても0からカウントするほうが親しみやすいです。
