The program defines a string color
with the value "Navy Blue" and then prints a slice of the string using color[5:8]
. In Python, string slicing uses the format string[start:end]
, where start
is inclusive and end
is exclusive.
In the string "Navy Blue":
- The character indices are:
- 0: N
- 1: a
- 2: v
- 3: y
- 4: (space)
- 5: B
- 6: l
- 7: u
- 8: e
So, color[5:8]
will result in:
- Index 5 (B) is included
- Index 6 (l) is included
- Index 7 (u) is included
- Index 8 (e) is excluded
Therefore, color[5:8]
results in "Blu"
.
The output of the program is:
Blu
