Python: Implementing slicing in __getitem__
- by nicotine
I am trying to implement slice functionality for a class I am making that creates a vector representation.
I have this code so far, which I believe will properly implement the slice but whenever I do a call like v[4] where v is a vector python returns an error about not having enough parameters. So I am trying to figure out how to define the getitem class to handle both plain indexes and slicing.
def __getitem__(self, start, stop, step):
indx = start
if stop == None:
end = start + 1
else:
end = stop
if step == None:
stride = 1
else:
stride = step
return self.__data[indx:end:stride]
