you can take a slice then from the second to the fourth. write X[1:4:1] will give you the slice from second to fourth elements. I suggest you provide what you want the final answer to look like in your question. Try this in code playground: X = [1,3,7,24,6] X.sort() #remove this line if you don't want to sort print(X) print(X[1:4:1])

X[1:4:1] is what is called a slice in python. this code will give you the elements in X from second to the 4th. try the code I provided you in my previous answer to see basically a slice is written as: X[index of first element you want:index of last element you want+1: step of slice]. In X[1:4:1], the index of the first element you want (2nd element) is 1, index of last element you want is 3 (add 1 and it's 4). step is 1. you can make step = 2 to skip one element each time in your slice. You can make it 3 to skip 2 elements each time...
