Although this is the form which will be more readily recognized -
especially by non-native speakers - and it is not in fact incorrect, the
more correct plural of "index" is "indices". (See parallel with "vertex"
and "vertices", "vortex" and "vortices", "helix" and "helices", and a
total of about three others in the entire English language.) It might
not be worth changing, in light of the correct form's comparative
obscurity, but I wanted to point the fact out anyway.

Inconsistency between this line and the previous one: "print" vs.
"prints". I'm not sure which one would be better, but I think that
whichever tense of the verb is settled on should also be prepended to
the other two lines, above.
