Answer 1

Hi, can you be more precise about what you need explanations for?

In short I see that the code defines a list named "n" and then defines a new list named "m" by applying a cut on the "n" list. And does it a lot of times (so the values of "n" and "m" are reset each time).

A cut is defined by the elements between brackets [start cut : end cut : steps of the cut]

If you have n[1:8:2] it says : "cut the n-list from item one, up to item 8, and make steps of two items in between.

Negative numbers work on the opposite direction.

There is a very good python course on solo learn about it, that will show you better than a long explaination here!

All the best
