String Slicing 2/2
We can also get a substring from a string using simple slicing.
First, let's look at the syntax of slicing.
string[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.
# Creating a string string = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO' print("Initial string: ", string) string_1 = string[7:13] print("Elements in a range 7-13: ", string_1)
# Print elements from a pre-defined point to end string_2 = string[5:] print("Elements from 6th element till the end: ", string_2)
# Print all elements from beginning till end string_3 = string[:] print("All elements: ", string_3)
