Weird Python line of the day:

`>>> [10, 20, 15, 12, 9][_]`
`[20, 15]`

**How can you achieve this?**

_Note: this is not something you'll want to do in real code, just a Python curiosity!_

@s_gruppetta Usually _ contains the last output in a repl. So I guess for you its something like 1:2 and then you are accesing those elements from your list.

Follow

@out_of_cheese @s_gruppetta

```
_ = slice(1,3)
```

does the magic. Note, that `_` can be used as a normal variable name.

@erikdesmedt @out_of_cheese Correct, and in the standard Python REPL, the underscore stores the last value, so you don't need to assign it, either
