Slice Objects
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PySlice_Type
|
|
|
|
The type object for slice objects. This is the same as :class:`slice` in the
|
|
Python layer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PySlice_Check(PyObject *ob)
|
|
|
|
Return true if *ob* is a slice object; *ob* must not be *NULL*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PySlice_New(PyObject *start, PyObject *stop, PyObject *step)
|
|
|
|
Return a new slice object with the given values. The *start*, *stop*, and
|
|
*step* parameters are used as the values of the slice object attributes of
|
|
the same names. Any of the values may be *NULL*, in which case the
|
|
``None`` will be used for the corresponding attribute. Return *NULL* if
|
|
the new object could not be allocated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PySlice_GetIndices(PyObject *slice, Py_ssize_t length, Py_ssize_t *start, Py_ssize_t *stop, Py_ssize_t *step)
|
|
|
|
Retrieve the start, stop and step indices from the slice object *slice*,
|
|
assuming a sequence of length *length*. Treats indices greater than
|
|
*length* as errors.
|
|
|
|
Returns ``0`` on success and ``-1`` on error with no exception set (unless one of
|
|
the indices was not :const:`None` and failed to be converted to an integer,
|
|
in which case ``-1`` is returned with an exception set).
|
|
|
|
You probably do not want to use this function.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.2
|
|
The parameter type for the *slice* parameter was ``PySliceObject*``
|
|
before.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PySlice_GetIndicesEx(PyObject *slice, Py_ssize_t length, Py_ssize_t *start, Py_ssize_t *stop, Py_ssize_t *step, Py_ssize_t *slicelength)
|
|
|
|
Usable replacement for :c:func:`PySlice_GetIndices`. Retrieve the start,
|
|
stop, and step indices from the slice object *slice* assuming a sequence of
|
|
length *length*, and store the length of the slice in *slicelength*. Out
|
|
of bounds indices are clipped in a manner consistent with the handling of
|
|
normal slices.
|
|
|
|
Returns ``0`` on success and ``-1`` on error with exception set.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.2
|
|
The parameter type for the *slice* parameter was ``PySliceObject*``
|
|
before.
