-1 as an index for the last element in an axis doesn't work

Hi,

This is not a bug per se. Rather, cgt just doesn't support negative indexing at the moment. There has been discussion about adding it. We'll let you know if/when it makes it in.

It's bad that it fails without throwing an exception.

From my point of view -1 is usual python way to take the last element. I suggest to support it.

+1. (But throwing an exception would probably be enough for a short-term measure.)
