Slicing

Slicing, like indexing, retrieves specific characters from a sequence, such as a string. But while indexing retrieves only a single character, slicing retrieves a whole substring within an index range.

Use the bracket notation for slicing with the start and end position identifiers. For example, word[i:j] returns the substring starting from index i (included) and ending in index j (excluded).

You can also skip the position identifier before or after the slicing colon. This indicates that the slice starts from the first or last position, respectively.

word[:i] + word[i:] returns the same string as word.
