Answer 1

k[4:2] is empty because the start number is bigger than the stop number. but it works if you add -1 as third number which is step . Default is 1 if you don't mention any. So as a default it moves from 4 forward so it prints empty list

Answer 2

k[1:3] returns[ 2,3 ]
And k[4:2]) returns empty
So [2, 3] only...

Answer 3

k[4, 2] start index is 4 and end index is 2 so already 4 exceeds 2. So no starts slice

See list[ start, end, step_count ] : list slicing starts at start index, until end index by taking step_count for next index.
