"""

# Get string of choice
s = input( "Enter favorite pie: " )

# Get indices i and j
t = input( "Enter two indices i and j: " )

i, j = t.split()
i = int( i )
j = int( j )

# Get slices of s
slice1 = s[ i : j ]   # Substring starts at index i, ends at index j-1
slice2 = s[ i : ]     # Substring starts at index i, continues to end of string
slice3 = s[ : j ]     # Substring starts at index 0, ends at index j-1
slice4 = s[ : ]       # Substring equals the entire string



# Print results
print()
