Correction in default stop index value for negative stepping.
On line 88 the default value for stop index 'j' in the basic slice syntax is i:j:k for negative values of k is given as -1
Line 88: and -1 for *k < 0* . If *k* is not given it defaults to 1. Note that
Proposing that this should be changed to -n-1:
Line 88: and *-n-1* for *k < 0* . If *k* is not given it defaults to 1. Note that
The issue was discussed and was approved by a project member see the following link :
