What is slicing? |
|
Answer» String slicing: Slice is a substring of a main string. A substring can be taken from the original string by using [ ] operator and index or subscript values. Thus, [ ] is also known as slicing operator. Using slice operator, we can slice one or more substrings from a main string. General format of slice operation: str[start:end] Where start is the beginning index and end is the last index value of a character in the string. Python takes the end value less than one from the actual index specified. For example, if you want to slice first 4 characters from a string, you have to specify it as 0 to 5. Because, python consider only the end value as n –1. Example: slice a single character from a string >>> str1= ”THIRUKKURAL” >>> print (str1[0]) T |
