String Slicing 1/2

To get get a substring from a string, you have to use slice() function.

The syntax of slice() function:. slice(start: end: step) respectively:

  • start -- the index from which to start slicing.
  • end -- the index at which the slicing ends.
  • step -- this parameter determines the increments between the indices.

Ending index is up to but not including.

Indexing starts from 0.

It's time for an example.

Task

You have such string hello, world. Using slice() constructor you have to get such string: ll, eowl, world. Use only positive indexing.

Task
