l = [4,5,7,9,10,12]
def rotation(l,n):
return l[n:] + l[:n]
print rotation(l,3)
Let "l" be the above mentioned list, with the above code I am able to rotate the first half [4,5,7] with the other half [9,10,12], getting the desired output [9, 10, 12, 4, 5, 7]. However what I am trying to do and I cannot figure out, is in the case when we have an odd number of elements. Let's say l = [4,5,7,8,9,10,12] I want the odd number that is in the middle, in this case [8], to remain in the middle, and the first half to rotate with the last half, getting the output in this case [9,10,12,8,4,5,7]
Thanks in advance.
