What is negative index in Python?

Negative indexing usually starts where the array ends which is suppoted by python

Negative Index is starting/reading an array inrevrese, from finish to start.

In python the negitive number is used to start slicing from the end for example 

favorite_food = ['rice',chicken','bread']

print(favorite_food[-1])

the result will be : bread .

Positive Indexing

...

[0,1,2,3,...,a,b,c]

               ...-3-2-1

Negative Indexing 

It's reading data from last to first.

It is basically accessing index values in reverse order.

for eg: A list stores 5 integers then basically we access it with positive index i.e; list[1] or list[2] etc.

but if we aim to access numbers from back of list then we do it as i.e; list[-1] will give the last element of the list.

Negative indexing works same like general indexing the main difference is it starts from behind/end.
[0,1,2] General
[-2,-1,0] negative index
Thank You

In Python, negative indexing is a feature that allows you to access elements from the end of a sequence, such as a list or a string. The index -1 refers to the last element, -2 refers to the second-to-last element, and soon. For Example:  my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

                                                                       last_element = my_list[-1]

                                                                       print(last_element)

                                                                       The Output:5

Negative index starting with-1 and positive index start  0.Python supports negative indexing, which typically starts where the array ends.

Negative indexing in Python refers to accessing elements in a sequence using negative numbers as indices.

n Python, a negative index lets you access elements from the end of a sequence. For example, -1 gives the last element, -2 the second-last, and so on. This is useful for quickly referencing elements from the sequence's end.
