iteration - python: iterate a specific range in a list

Question

Lets say I have a list:

listOfStuff =([a,b], [c,d], [e,f], [f,g])

What I want to do is to iterate through the middle 2 components in a way similar to the following code:

for item in listOfStuff(range(2,3))
   print item

The end result should be as below:

[c,d]
[e,f]

This code currently does not work, but I hope you can understand what I am trying to do.

Answer 1

listOfStuff =([a,b], [c,d], [e,f], [f,g])

for item in listOfStuff[1:3]:
    print item

You have to iterate over a slice of your tuple. The 1 is the first element you need and 3 (actually 2+1) is the first element you don't need.

Elements in a list are numerated from 0:

listOfStuff =([a,b], [c,d], [e,f], [f,g])
               0      1      2      3

[1:3] takes elements 1 and 2.
