Without an operand, the ''nth'' filter operator returns the first entry in the current list. The optional operand specifies the number of entries to return.

For example:

|!Filter String |!Description |
|`one two three four five +[nth[]]` |Returns `one` |
|`one two three four five +[nth[3]]` |Returns `three` |
