sublist(list, start) sublist(list, start, length)This function returns a sublist of list beginning at the element numbered by start. If length is specified, then the sublist has that length; otherwise, the length is given by
(length(list) - (start - 1)). If start is less
than 1, if the length of the sublist is negative, or if the sum
of start and length is greater than one more than the length
of the list, then sublist() throws a ~range error.
Examples:
sublist([2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 2, 3)
=> [3, 4, 5]
sublist([2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 3)
=> [4, 5, 6, 7]
sublist([2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 7)
=> []
