 How would you get the last 4 items of a list?

Did you try the same get the last 4 items solution that worked 
for a string?

   lst[-4:]

The idea was to ask a question that would help the original poster to
answer their own question.  =)

Last 4 Letters of String

[Robert Rawlins - Think Blue]

Hello Guys,

 

I'm looking for a function which will give me the last 4 characters of a
given string. I'm sure it's a very simple task but I couldn't find anything
of it.

 

Any ideas?

 

Rob

Use the same technique as you'd use slicing a list.
