# Given array
arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
# Excluding elements using slice
new_arr = arr.slice(2..-2)
puts new_arr
Explanation:
- Given Array: The initial array
arr
is created with the values [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
. - Excluding Elements: The
slice
method is used to create a new array new_arr
by excluding elements from index 2 to the second-to-last index of the original array arr
. - Print Result: The
puts
method is used to print the content of the new_arr
array, which will exclude elements from index 2 to the second-to-last index of the original array.
