The hint for this one is very misleading. Am i anywhere close to getting this right?
def first_4(itr):
return itr[0:4]
def first_and_last_4(itr):
return itr[0:4] + itr[-4:]
def odds(itr):
return itr[1::2]
def reverse_evens(itr):
lista = itr[::2]
if len(itr) %2 <= 1:
lista.pop()
return lista[::-1]
else:
return lista[::-1]

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