Python - set list range to a specific value

Question

I need to set a subset of a list to a specific value based on a tuple with bounds (start,end).

Currently I\'m doing this:

indexes = rang         


        

Answer 1

>>> L = list("qwerty")
>>> L
['q', 'w', 'e', 'r', 't', 'y']
>>> L[2:4] = ["foo"] * (4-2)
>>> L
['q', 'w', 'foo', 'foo', 't', 'y']
