[issue42467] slice().indices() returns incorrect values

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com> added the comment:

This is essentially a duplicate of #11842. In short, slice.indices is working as intended here. It's best to think of slice.indices as start, stop and step arguments that could be provided to the range built-in function to get the set of relevant indices.
