Why Python does *SLICING* the way it does??

[James Stroud]

I like this, it works for any integer.
>>> str="asdfjkl;"
>>> i=-400
>>> print str[:i]+str[i:]
asdfjkl;
>>> i = 65534214
>>> print str[:i]+str[i:]
asdfjkl;


Please forgive my reassigning str. I am one of those type first think later 
programmers.
