Modifications like return x[-1::-2] or x[::-2] don't pass as well
def first_4(x):
return x[:4]
def first_and_last_4(x):
return x[:4]+x[-4:]
def odds(x):
return x[1::2]
def reverse_evens(x):
arr = x[::2]
return arr.reverse()

bla = arr[::-1] and then return bla
the -1 walks backwards through the iterable and reverses it.
