bookString Indexing in Python

To access a specific character in a string, use square brackets with an index number inside. Remember, the index number is not the actual position of the character because indexing in Python starts at 0. Consider the example below for clarity.


              
12345

            
# Initial string
site = "codefinity"

# Get the letters 'o' and 'y'
print(site[1], site[9])
copy
question mark

Imagine you're given the string test. Identify the character that corresponds to the index 6.
