Find the output of the following program:
Python3
list = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']
print(list[10:] )
|
(A)
[\’a\’, \’b\’, \’c\’, \’d\’, \’e\’]
(B)
[ \’c\’, \’d\’, \’e\’]
(C)
[ ]
(D)
[\’a\’, \’b\’]
Answer: (C)
Explanation:
As one would expect, attempting to access a member of a list using an index that exceeds the number of members (e.g., attempting to access list[10] in the list above) results in an IndexError. However, attempting to access a slice of a list at a starting index that exceeds the number of members in the list will not result in an IndexError and will simply return an empty list.
