Copy messy_list using slice syntax into a new variable clean_list.
What honestly is this even asking?
Is this asking me to copy the entire list and then reformat it into a numerical list?
Uhh quite confused.
messy_list = [5, 2, 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 0, 9, -1]
# Your code goes below here
clean_list = messy_list

Treehouse Guest TeacherMake a copy instead of just pointing another variable at the list. We talked about a slice syntax for making copies of entire lists.

Treehouse Guest TeacherI don't think I'll be covering PyQt or anything else in the Qt world. I don't know enough about it or what's actually useful for employment in that area. Maybe a guest teacher?
I probably will, though, cover the tkinter part of the standard library at some point. Probably quite awhile from now, though.
