String slicing:

  • • A span of items that are taken from a sequence denotes a slice.
  • • Span of characters are obtained when a string is sliced.
  • • The slices of strings are termed as substrings.

Syntax:

The syntax for string slicing is shown below:

  string[start : end]

Explanation:

In the above syntax,

  • • The “start” denotes index of the first character in the slice.
  • • The “end” denotes the index of end of slice.
  • • The expression would return a string that contains a copy of characters from “start” till “end”.

In C#: Run the following console application. This program should produce the union of two sets, but has several errors. Use a variety of debugging techniques to locate and correct the errors.  NOTE: A set is a collection of like elements that does not contain any duplicates. The union of two sets is the set that contains all the elements in both sets. Formally: A union B = {x : x Î A or x Î B}read: A union B is the set of all x such that x is in A or x is in B Example: A = {1,2,3,4,5} and B = {2,4,6,8}, then A union B = {1,2,3,4,5,6,8} (notice, no duplicates!) Debug the program. When you find an error, comment out the offending line, give an explanation of the error, write a corrected line, and include a screenshot of your program running with successful output. Submit the modified files and screenshots of any breakpoints you use.
