I wanted to create an account to discuss changes to the indexes and slices
example, because basically, the right and left sides of that example seem only
half related; the way it is written, could be convinced that the first element
in that list on the left consists of the list [0,1,2,3,4,5] I think would be
clear if it was something like this
(sorry the spacing is not good)
Index from rear -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
index from front 0 1 2 3 4 5
+—+—+—+—+—+—+
my_list = | a | b | c | d | e | f |
+—+—+—+—+—+—+
Slice from front : 1 2 3 4 5 :
Slice from rear : -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 :
(notice also only 4 colons instead of 8)
Then on the right side
my_list=[a,b,c,d,e,f]
len(my_list)==6
my_list[0]==a
etc.
This way, the whole example is connected.
That’s my 2 cents. If you think I’m off in left field, then I don’t need access
to modify the page. Or please feel free to make these modifications if that’s
easier.
Thanks,
Lew
