| In the following code, smaller_list_of_cities is assigned __ elements of the cities list. (Enter a numeral.) | smaller_list_of_cities = cities[2:5] | The answer is 3. 2:5 means elements with indexes of 2, 3, and 4 | ^ *3 *$ |
| Fill in the blank. The first element in the slice is the second element in the list. The last element in the slice is the third element in the list. | smaller_list_of_cities = cities[____] | 1:3 — the 3 here is the index number of the element that comes after the last element in the slice. The slice is elements 1 through 2. | ^ *1:3 *$ |
| Copy the second through eighth elements from the list y and assign the slice to the list x. | x = y[1:8] | x `= `y`[`1`:`8`] | |
| Reduce the list x to a slice of itself—the sixth through 8th elements. | x = x[5:8] | x = x[5:8] | |
| Copy some elements from a list and assign the slice to another list. Make up the list names and the index numbers. | x = y[2:14] | ^ *[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]* = [a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\[[0-9]+:[0-9]+\] *$ | |
| What is the index number of the last element in the slice? | x = y[7:9] | 8 | ^ *8 *$ |
| Fill in the blank to slice the first through ninth element with minimal coding. | x = y[____] | :9 | ^ *:9 *$ |
| Using minimal coding, copy the fifth through last element from y and assign the slice to x. | x = y[4:] | ^ *x = y\[4:\] *$ | |
| Copy the numbers 2 through 4 out of y and assign the slice to x. | y = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] | x = y[1:4] | ^ *x = y\[1:4\] *$ |
| Using minimal coding, reduce the list x to its first five elements. | x = x[:5] | ^ *x = x\[:5\] *$ | |
