Text Processing-Python

Basic python code features

1. List

>>> x
> [’what’, ’would’, ’you’, ’have’, ’put’, ’in’, ’my’, ’list’]
>>> x[1:6] 
 >[’would’, ’you’, ’have’, ’put’, ’in’] 
>>> x[1:6:2]       # slice with step=2
>  [’would’, ’have’, ’in’] 
>>> x[6:1:-2]     # slice with negative step 
>  [’my’, ’put’, ’you’] 
>>> x[::-1]      # does what? - reverses list!
>   [’list’, ’my’, ’in’, ’put’, ’have’, ’you’, ’would’, ’what’]
