# 0 represent the left end of the sequence, -1 represents the right end of the sequence.
mystring = "my string"
#if the sign of the step is negative, then
#the default value of the start is -1, and the default value of the stop is zeor.
mystring[::-1] #'gnirts ym'

mystring[3::-1] #'s ym'

#if the sign of the step is positive, then
#the default value of the start is 0, and the defalut value of the stop is -1.
mystring[::1] #'my string'

# start(0) ------- stop(-1),  if the sign of the step is positive.
# stop(0) -------- start(-1), if the sign of the step is negative.
