Chapter 7.3, Problem 10CP
Program Plan Intro
List slicing:
- • Slicing is a concept of selecting a range of elements from a list.
- • In Python, the expression that selects a subsection of a list is known as a slice.
- • A slice is a span of data that are taken from a list.
- • Normally, the slice expression has a start index and an end index for slicing.
- • In case if the end index is not provided, the python employs the length of the list as the end index.
Syntax:
In Python, the list slice statement without the end index can be expressed as follows:
listname[start:]
Explanation:
In the list slice syntax,
- • The “start” represents the index of the first data in the slice.
- • As the “end” index is not provided, Python employs the length of the list as the “end” index for the slice.
- • The list slice expression returns a list having a copy of data from index “start” up to the end of the list.

What will the following code display?list1 = [4, 9, 6, 3, 8, 7, 5]print(list1[-2:6])
Write the code that would create a list of data. The list should be called data. The data list should be initialized to the following values:
54, 26, 14, 93, 17, -10, 77, 31, 40, 55, 20
Return Growing NumList
This function will be given a single number, it should return a list of strings of numbers. Each string in the list will only contain a single number repeated an arbitrary amount of times. The number each string will contain will be equal to the current string's index+1. The number in the string should be repeated the same number of times as the string's index+1. Each number in the string should be separated by a space. This list should stop when its size equals the max number specified.
Signature:
public static ArrayList<String> returnGrowingNumList(int max)
Example:
INPUT: 3OUTPUT: [1, 2 2, 3 3 3]
INPUT: 6OUTPUT: [1, 2 2, 3 3 3, 4 4 4 4, 5 5 5 5 5, 6 6 6 6 6 6]
