What is slicing in Python?

Programming Language
#1

Slicing is a method for selecting a subset of elements from a sequence data type such as a list, string, or tuple. Slicing is a good way to get the components out quickly and easily. It requires a : (colon) to separate the field’s start index and end index. All forms of data sequences We may use slicing to retrieve the required elements from a list or tuple. Although we may retrieve elements by giving an index, we only receive a single element, however, we can get a group or suitable range of items by using slicing.

#2

Python slicing is about obtaining a sub-string from the given string by slicing it respectively from start to end.

For example,

a=”quora”

print(a[0]). It will give first letter of the text.

Slicing index go from 0,1,2,……(0 means 1st letter, 1 means 2nd letter, etc…)

print(a[::-1]). # it will give you a text in the reverse format(“arouq”)

print(a[:3]). #it will give ‘quor’
