Here, we specify a start of index 2, no end, and a step of -1. Slicing here will start from index 2 which is 3. The negative steps mean the next value in the slice will be at an index smaller than the previous index by 1. This means 2 - 1 which is 1 so the value at this index, which is 2 will be added to the slice.

BetaThat evaluates to 1, which is truthy. At that point, Python stops the evaluation because it already knows that the entire expression is truthy. Consequently, Python returns 1 as the value of the expression and never evaluates the remaining operands, f(2) and f(3). You can confirm from the output that the f(2) and f(3) calls don’t occur.

Let's break down how it works: - The first colon `:` indicates that we want to slice the entire string. - The second colon `:` indicates the step value. - The `-1` as the step value means we want to traverse the string in reverse ...

BetaFor many types of objects, x += y will modify the object referred to by x in-place, whereas x = x + y will create a new object and reassign x to it. This distinction is important if you still have another reference to the object somewhere. For example, the following two pieces of code are the same except for the a += b/a = a + b line, but they produce slightly different results:

BetaI'm trying to port some Python code to C, but I came across this line and I can't figure out what it means: if message.startswith('<stream:stream'): message = message[:-1] + ' />' I understand that if ' message starts with <stream:stream then something needs to be appended.
