Python slicing looks really weird. How do I explain *s=list(range(100)); s[10:20] *gives you a part of the list. Can we have an extra function for lists and string (and wherever slicing works) to explicitly mention that we're slicing?? Something like - *s=list(range(100)); s.slice(10, 20).*
Has this been mentioned before? What would be a drawback of having something more readable like a *.slice* function? Would love to know your thoughts. PS: Explicit is better than Implicit :)
