>From python docs: For non-negative indices, the length of a slice is the difference of the indices, if both are within bounds. For example, the length of word[1:3] is 2.
Example: >>> list_[1][1:3] ('LOOSEFREIGHT', 'MIXEDLCL') >>> As I said i think my approach is more pythonic, but I'm not absolutely sure. With such approach I don't need importing, I use slicing and you are right, your approach is more flexible and would work on more cases, but in this particular case I still think unnecessary. Maybe someone else could tell us which is the best option.
