Hi: Here is a question in the python munual 3.1.3. The example said: a = ['spam', 'eggs', 100, 1234]; a[0]='spam',a[1]='eggs',a[2]=100 and a[4]=1234; It then said: a[0:2]=[1,12] I think it's a error assignment. 'Cause I believe a[0:2]=['spam','eggs',100]; Why? Any comments are Welcome.Thanks in advance.
