11,623 PointsI think that this question doesn't accept my answer, which gives the right output?
def reverse_evens(something4): return something4[-1::-2]
It turns a iterable like [1,2,3,4,5] into [5,3,1], which is what the question is asking, right?
def first_4(something):
return something[0:4]
def first_and_last_4(something2):
to_return = first_4(something2)
to_return += something2[-4:]
return to_return
def odds(something3):
return something3[1::2]
def reverse_evens(something4):
return something4[-1::-2]
