List slicing allows us to access elements of a list in a concise manner. The syntax looks like this:
[start:end:stride]
Where start
describes where the slice starts (inclusive), end
is where it ends (exclusive), and stride
describes the space between items in the sliced list. For example, a stride of 2
would select every other item from the original list to place in the sliced list.
l = [i ** 2 for i in range(1, 11)]
# Should be [1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100]
print l[2:9:2]
结果
[9, 25, 49, 81]
第一个参数为起始位置(包含),第二个为结束位置(不包含),第三个为跨度(每几个取一个)
反转list
my_list = range(1, 11)
backwards = my_list[::-1]
print backwards
结果
[10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
跨度为负则会从最末往前取
