Slice Objects
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PySlice_Type
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   .. index:: single: SliceType (in module types)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   The type object for slice objects.  This is the same as ``slice`` and
 | 
						|
   ``types.SliceType``.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. cfunction:: int PySlice_Check(PyObject *ob)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Return true if *ob* is a slice object; *ob* must not be *NULL*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. cfunction:: PyObject* PySlice_New(PyObject *start, PyObject *stop, PyObject *step)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Return a new slice object with the given values.  The *start*, *stop*, and
 | 
						|
   *step* parameters are used as the values of the slice object attributes of
 | 
						|
   the same names.  Any of the values may be *NULL*, in which case the
 | 
						|
   ``None`` will be used for the corresponding attribute.  Return *NULL* if
 | 
						|
   the new object could not be allocated.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. cfunction:: int PySlice_GetIndices(PySliceObject *slice, Py_ssize_t length, Py_ssize_t *start, Py_ssize_t *stop, Py_ssize_t *step)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Retrieve the start, stop and step indices from the slice object *slice*,
 | 
						|
   assuming a sequence of length *length*. Treats indices greater than
 | 
						|
   *length* as errors.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Returns 0 on success and -1 on error with no exception set (unless one of
 | 
						|
   the indices was not :const:`None` and failed to be converted to an integer,
 | 
						|
   in which case -1 is returned with an exception set).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   You probably do not want to use this function.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. cfunction:: int PySlice_GetIndicesEx(PySliceObject *slice, Py_ssize_t length, Py_ssize_t *start, Py_ssize_t *stop, Py_ssize_t *step, Py_ssize_t *slicelength)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Usable replacement for :cfunc:`PySlice_GetIndices`.  Retrieve the start,
 | 
						|
   stop, and step indices from the slice object *slice* assuming a sequence of
 | 
						|
   length *length*, and store the length of the slice in *slicelength*.  Out
 | 
						|
   of bounds indices are clipped in a manner consistent with the handling of
 | 
						|
   normal slices.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   Returns 0 on success and -1 on error with exception set.
