Slicing in python list

Types of Slicing in python list

Slicing in python list means we can get a sub list of any python list using the : operator.

color_list = [ ‘Red’, ‘Green’, ‘Yellow’, ‘Black’, ‘Blue’, ‘White’ ]

 print( color_list[ 1 : 4 ] )

Output

[ ‘Green’, ‘Yellow’, ‘Black’ ]

Note :- The only thing we have to remember is that in color_list[ 1 : 4 ], 1 is the index value and 4 is the number of elements in the list from the left. So in the above example, Green is at index 1 and Black is at 4th position.

Examples

color_list = [ ‘Red’, ‘Green’, ‘Yellow’, ‘Black’, ‘Blue’, ‘White’ ]

 print( color_list[ 2 : 6 ] )

 print( color_list[ 1 : 5 ] )

 print( color_list[ 3 : 4 ] )

Output

[ ‘Yellow’, ‘Black’, ‘Blue’, ‘White’ ]
