I don't know, I'll go and read up on it more.

The feature leaves me 'meh'. I don't find slices as awesome as everyone is always saying, especially without negative indices.

I guess part of it it that it isn't always clear to me when you're dealing with a slice, or an array, or whatever.

I know, when it's confusing, there's always some reasonable sounding explanation after the fact, sure, but the whole thing feels like a confusing mess.

Do you know any other systems languages, like C or C++? This kind of thing makes a lot more sense when you have some surrounding context.

I know both in fact.
