python slice an array
a[start:stop] # items start through stop-1
a[start:] # items start through the rest of the array
a[:stop] # items from the beginning through stop-1
a[:] # a copy of the whole array
Example:
>>> a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
>>> a[1:4]
[2, 3, 4]is : and :: the same in python slice
a[-1] # last item in the array
a[-2:] # last two items in the array
a[:-2] # everything except the last two itemsslicing in python
word = "Example"
# Obtain the first 3 characters of "Example"
# E x a m p l e
# 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
# First 3 characters = "Exa"
sliced_word = word[:3] # Gives you "Exa"
# Everything after character #3 = "mple"
second_sliced_word = word[3:] # Gives you "mple"python slice
# array[start:stop:step]
# start = include everything STARTING AT this idx (inclusive)
# stop = include everything BEFORE this idx (exclusive)
# step = (can be ommitted) difference between each idx in the sequence
arr = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']
arr[2:] => ['c', 'd', 'e']
arr[:4] => ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
arr[2:4] => ['c', 'd']
arr[0:5:2] => ['a', 'c', 'e']
arr[:] => makes copy of arrpython3 slice
