  \item[(4)] The slice of \var{s} from \var{i} to \var{j} is defined as
    the sequence of items with index \var{k} such that \code{\var{i} <=
    \var{k} < \var{j}}.  If \var{i} or \var{j} is greater than
!   \code{len(\var{s})}, use \code{len(\var{s})}.  If \var{i} is omitted,
!   use \code{0}.  If \var{j} is omitted, use \code{len(\var{s})}.  If
!   \var{i} is greater than or equal to \var{j}, the slice is empty.
  
  \item[(5)] The slice of \var{s} from \var{i} to \var{j} with step
    \var{k} is defined as the sequence of items with index 
    \code{\var{x} = \var{i} + \var{n}*\var{k}} such that \code{0}
    \code{<=} \var{n} \code{<} \code{abs(i-j)}.  If \var{i} or \var{j}
    is greater than \code{len(\var{s})}, use \code{len(\var{s})}.  If
!   \var{i} or \var{j} are omitted then they become ``end'' values
!   (which end depends on the sign of \var{k}).  Note, \var{k} cannot
!   be zero.
