Universal slicer

[cymplecy]

I've made a universal (works on strings and lists) slicer

These are examples of what parameters return what result

List Slicing

Empty end slot == length of list. Empty start == 1

Both start and end must be between 1 to length of list

If end > start, reported value is reversed

String Slicing

See list examples above for explanation of these

I have deliberately coloured in the word slice using the list colour to show that the block works with both strings and lists

Love it! Great idea.

Behaviour changed:

Processed values should be within the possible indices of the sliced item otherwise it will report an empty string or list

Start and end types changed to any type (so I can tell difference between empty slot and a zero value) so the current reporter will be seen as a different block than the original
