Its the 4th task of slice.py challenge where you have to return reverse of even indexed array using splice operator. Here is my code :
def first_4(iterable):
return iterable[:4]
def first_and_last_4(another_iterable):
return another_iterable[:4] + another_iterable[-4:]
def odds(more_iterable):
return more_iterable[1::2]
def reverse_evens(just_stop_with_slices):
just_stop_with_slices = just_stop_with_slices.sort().reverse()
if len(just_stop_with_slices[]) % 2 == 0:
return just_stop_with_slices[::2]
else:
return just_stop_with_slices[1::2]

HINT: find item with even index and then reverse the string
Solution is .

def first_4(iterable):
return iterable[:4]
def first_and_last_4(another_iterable):
return another_iterable[:4] + another_iterable[-4:]
def odds(more_iterable):
return more_iterable[1::2]
def reverse_evens(just_stop_with_slices):
return (just_stop_with_slices[::2])[-1::-1]
