The slice() function returns a slice object.

A slice object is used to specify how to slice a sequence. You can specify where to start the slicing, and where to end. You can also specify the step, which allows you to e.g. slice only every other item.

Default is 0 end An integer number specifying at which position to end the slicing step Optional. An integer number specifying the step of the slicing. Default is 1 More Examples Example

Create a tuple and a slice object. Start the slice object at position 3, and slice to position 5, and return the result:

a = ("a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h")
x = slice(3, 5)
print(a[x])
