Index_slicing_problem

Question

I have started learning Python today and I am facing a problem while doing "slice" in Python. I saw Brocod's video but after following him the problem wasn't solved.

website="http//google.com"
slice=slice(7,-4)
print(website[slice])

And The output I am getting:

[Running] python -u "d:\Learning\BroCode\Python\String_slice.py"
oogle

[Done] exited with code=0 in 0.505 seconds

I tried to rewrite the code, reinstalling Vs code but none of them worked.

slice=slice(6,-4)
print(website[slice])
