/**
 * The annotated expression evaluates to an integer greater than or equal to 1.
 *
 * As an example of a use-case for this type, consider the following code:
 *
 * 
{@code
 * if (arr.length > 0) {
 *    int j = arr[arr.length - 1];
 * }
 * }
 *
 * Without the knowing that {@code arr.length} is positive, the Index Checker cannot verify that
 * accessing the last element of the array is safe - there might not be a last element!
