Hi
I was wondering if there was a nicer way to swap the first 2
characters in a string with the 4th and 5th characters other than:

darr=list("010203040506")
aarr=darr[:2]
barr=darr[4:6]
darr[:2]=barr
darr[4:6]=aarr
result="".join(darr)

The above code works fine but I was wondering if anybody had another
way of doing this?
