RangeElementsOfList

Type

operator

Summary

Designates the elements between indices Start and Finish in Target.

Syntax

element <Start> to <Finish> of <Target>

Description

Either locates the element containers between the given indices for use as a list container for the target of another operation, or evaluates the elements between the given indices as a list.

note

It is an error if either Start or Finish are out of range.

note

If a list is the source of ``put tList into element 1 to 3 of tOtherList```, then tList is not inserted element-wise. The entire list is inserted as an element, so that element 1 of tOtherList is tList.
