rustHow to create a subslice from a Rust slice?

Creating a subslice from a Rust slice is a simple process. The &[T] type provides the slice method which takes two indices and returns a subslice of the original slice.

let v = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
let s = &v[1..3];
println!("{:?}", s);

Output example

[2, 3]

The code above creates a subslice s from the original slice v by passing two indices 1 and 3 to the slice method. The output is a subslice containing elements from index 1 to index 3 (not including index 3).

Parts of the code:

• let v = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];: creates a slice v containing elements 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
• let s = &v[1..3];: creates a subslice s from the original slice v by passing two indices 1 and 3 to the slice method.
• println!("{:?}", s);: prints the subslice s to the console.
