You don't "call" "arrays" "with indices". You are indexing the list
ArrayWithData using the index "i,int(blah)" which is invalid.
Indices must be integers, not comma seperated values.

I'm afraid not! You didn't specify at all what you'd like to achieve
(just "it doesn't work! why?), and clairvoyance isn't as easy as it
looks.

If you want to slice, don't use Perl syntax. Python uses a colon for
index separation to eliminate ambiguities.

some_elements = my_list[3:10]
