What is slicing in Python?

As the name suggests, ‘slicing’ is taking parts of.

Syntax for slicing is [start : stop : step]

start is the starting index from where to slice a list or tuple

stop is the ending index or where to sop.

step is the number of steps to jump.

Default value for start is 0, stop is number of items, step is 1.

Slicing can be done on strings, arrays, lists, and tuples.

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

print(numbers[1 : : 2]) #output : [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
