Slicing a Range of Positions in Python
To get a slice, you need to specify a range of positions for it - from the beginning to the end. In this case, we set the initial index to the left of the colon, and the final index to the right:
txt = 'abcde'
res = txt[1:3]
print(res) # 'bc'
Given a string:
txt = '12345'
Get a slice of all its characters except the first and last:
'234'
Given a list:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Get the following slice from it:
[1, 2, 3]
Given a list:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Get the following slice from it:
[2, 3, 4, 5]
Given a list:
lst = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Get the following slice from it:
[2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
