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.
