In PYTHON
Given a list of ints, a start index, and an end index (not inclusive),
function should generate a List which is a subset of the given list, between the
specified start index and the end index - 1. This function should not mutate its
input list.
If the start index is negative, start from the beginning of the list.
If the end index is greater than the length of the list, end with the end of the list.
If the length of the list is 0, start > len of the list or end <= 0, return the empty
list.

• Cannot use the in operator of Python
• Cannot use the list class's + or == operators nor built-in methods beyond
append and pop
