// To see the expected output, please run:

func main() {
// ########################################################
//
// #1: Create a string slice: `names` with a length and
// capacity of 5, and print it.
//
//
// ...
// s.Show("1st step", names)
// ########################################################
//
// #2: Append the following names to the names slice:
//
// "einstein", "tesla", "aristotle"
//
// Print the names slice.
//
// Observe how the slice and its backing array change.
//
//
// ...
// s.Show("2nd step", names)
// ########################################################
//
// #3: Overwrite the name slice by creating a new slice
// using make().
//
// Adjust the make() function so that it creates a
// slice with capacity of 5, and puts the slice pointer
// to the first index.
//
// Then append the following names to the slice:
//
// "einstein", "tesla", "aristotle"
//
// Expected output:
// ["einstein", "tesla", "aristotle" "" ""]
//
//
// ...
// s.Show("3rd step", names)
// ########################################################
//
// #4: Copy only the first two elements of the following
// array to the last two elements of the `names` slice.
//
// Print the names slice, you should see 5 elements.
// So, do not forget extending the slice.
//
// Observe how its backing array stays the same.
//
//
// Array (uncomment):
// moreNames := [...]string{"plato", "khayyam", "ptolemy"}
//
// ...
//
// s.Show("4th step", names)
// ########################################################
//
// #5: Only copy the last 3 elements of the `names` slice
// to a new slice: `clone`.
//
// Append the first two elements of the `names` to the
// `clone`.
//
// Ensure that after appending no new backing array
// allocations occur for the `clone` slice.
//
// Print the clone slice before and after the append.
//
//
// ...
// s.Show("5th step (before append)", clone)
//
// ...
// s.Show("5th step (after append)", clone)
// ########################################################
//
// #6: Slice the `clone` slice between 2nd and 4th (inclusive)
// elements into a new slice: `sliced`.
//
// Append "hypatia" to the `sliced`.
//
// Ensure that new backing array allocation "occurs".
//
// Change the 3rd element of the `clone` slice
// to "elder".
//
// Doing so should not change any elements of
// the `sliced` slice.
//
// Print the `clone` and `sliced` slices.
//
//
// ...
// s.Show("6th step", clone, sliced)
}
//
// Don't mind about this function.
//
// For printing the slices: You can either use the
// prettyslice package or `fmt.Printf`.
